Removing a watermark
I added a text watermark to a document. Then I set up the document to display
headers/footers differently on the first page. Then I removed the watermark. It went away from all the pages but the first page. I could only make the first page watermark disappear by removing the 'different first page' setting for headers/footers. I finally did remove that setting and inserted a section break between the first page and the rest of the document. That way I was able to remove the watermark from all pages and still have a different footer on the first page. Is there an easier way to do this? -- Thanks, Kevin Mathews |

Removing a watermark
Watermarks are anchored in the header to make them appear on every page.
Since you had two different headers in the doc (regular and first page), there were two separate but identical watermarks--one anchored in the regular header, one in the first page header, and both needed to be deleted. To delete a watermark manually, you have to View Header/Footer, then select the watermark, and hit delete. So you could have done that on the first page only. Apparently the "no watermark" button in the Insert | Watermark dialog doesn't account for having multiple headers quite smoothly enough.

Removing a watermark
Thank you. I didn't realize you could select the watermark as a graphic
element when the header or footer was active. -- Thanks, Kevin Mathews "Daiya Mitchell" wrote: Watermarks are anchored in the header to make them appear on every page.

Removing a watermark
Glad to help. No, it's not very intuitive.
