How can I lock the position of a Watermark in the background without
it being moved if margins (left or right) are changed?

Thank you for responding,

Jan Bart


- Open the header pane (because watermarks are anchored to headers, so the
header pane must be active to get access to the watermark).

- Right-click the watermark and choose Format WordArt or Format Picture (one
or the other will be on the context menu).

- In the dialog, click the Layout tab, and click the Advanced button there.

- Change the alignment from "centered relative to Margin" to "centered
relative to Page".
