Watermarks
How do I enter a new text (as a default) in the watermark section so I don't
have to type it each time I need the text? -- Kitkat |

Watermarks
There is no provision for adding to that list. Sorry.

Watermarks
There is a little workaround for custom watermarks: add a piece of
wordart (graphics or text boxes work too) to the header or footer, set the text wrap, change the color or transparency, and position it anywhere on the page. Because it's tied to the header or footer you can add a different one to each section if you like. On Mar 11, 1:44 pm, "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: There is no provision for adding to that list.

Watermarks
So how does that make it a selectable default? I think you missed the point
of the question. The user KNOWS how to create a watermark but wants to be able to make it a default in the list rather than having to change it manually. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP wrote in message ...

Watermarks
It does not make it a "selecteable default," hence my use of the word
"workaround" (noun: a plan or method to circumvent a problem (as in computer software) without eliminating it) in my suggestion. Sorry if my response confused you, but I was trying to point out an alternative to the NO response that offers more options. Some people do not realize that there are other possibilities that can achieve similar results to Word's limited Watermark feature. That was my point. Thanks for your pleasant feedback.

Or you could insert the watermark once and save it as an AutoText entry in
the Header or Footer style, after which it becomes available from the AutoText menu on the Header and Footer toolbar. -- Suzanne S.
