Default watermarks and margins and focus

Exactly. And will work for your purpose. If it's a full-page graphic you can
still anchor it to the First Page Header, Behind Text, but be sure to define
the position relative to the page rather than the margins. You will then be
able to set margins for the document body without affecting it.

If you insist on trying to use Word as a page layout program (which it is
not) instead of a word processor, you will continue to have to fight it.

Don't do it like this! Put the graphic in the first page header view
with a suitable wrap option set to allow the text to avoid it. Fix the
text area with margins. Do not use text boxes for the text.
