I have to insert a water mark into my document but I don't want it to be on

how do i insert a water mark on certain pages?
G'Day Danalynn,
Be aware that a watermark object (picture or text) is anchored in the Header area. A general answer would be: 1. Make sure that you use section breaks to separate the sets of pages that require differing Watermarks (including sections with NO watermark). 2. Insert the Watermark you would like for any section - initially it will be the same throughout the document. 3. Double-click, and modify, the Headers so that each section does NOT have 'Same as previous'. 4. Move to the (in your case) first section, double-click its Header - you will now be able to 'select' the watermark with a single (Left-)click. 5. Delete the Watermark (OR Right-click, choose 'Edit ...' and modify the Watermark for that section). 6. Repeat for the other sections until you have whatever Watermark you want (including NO Watermark) in each section. -- Regards, Pat Garard Melbourne, Australia _______________________ "danalynn" wrote in message ...

how do i insert a water mark on certain pages?
Hey Pat:
I have a similar situation, only my page is an 8.5x11 in landscape and is divided in two (to make a bulletin that folds over the middle). When I follow your above procedure it no longer prints both sections on the same 8.5x11 page so I have the front and back on one page. I have it setup with the back pape first (on the divided page) and the the front so when I fold the page the fold will be to the left. I only want the watermark on the Front (which is the right side of the divided page). This seems so much more difficult than it was in WordPerfect, especially when you want to print things like a book. Can you help me?

I am sorry Terry. I thought I was clear. This procedure only works in
Word 2007 if the watermark is a picture water mark and not a text water mark. (At least custom versions, I did not try standard watermarks). If you use a text water mark it appears in all sections. I could not get it to stay in just one section. As for custom picture watermarks. It seems problematic as well if I choose anything but auto it scales offcenter (left and top) no matter the size. Centering is not an option offered. "Terry Farrell" wrote: What's not working for you? A little more detail would help. Terry "RN" wrote in message ...

Have you tried this on a new, fresh document? This definitely does work: I
cannot replicate the problem you are having which suggests to me that the document may be partially corrupt. Take a copy of the document and use SaveAs and choose the xml option. That may well get rid of the corruption and get the H&Fs working correctly. Terry "RN" wrote in message ... I am sorry Terry. I thought I was clear.

how do i insert a water mark on certain pages?
Yes Terry, I should have said this is a large existing document (300 pages)
done in Word 2003. I am still saving in this format so I can distribute it. Changing to docx and back is problematic. This document has lots of figures and graphics. My audience do not have Word 2007. Yes I know they can get a viewer but I don't consider that a useable option. I did notice that in Word 2003 that my daughter created at home that WOrd 2003 will allow one to paste in xml and that can be very difficult to locate and fix formatting of. I see uneven spaces between paragraphs with no way to make them uniform. So your concern is that there may be some hidden XML? "Terry Farrell" wrote: Have you tried this on a new, fresh document?

No. The purpose of saving as XML and reverting back by Save as .doc, is that
it usually removes minor hidden corruptions in from the doc structure. In this case, I believe that the H&F layout is corrupted: with XML. H&Fs are stored in separate files which are then zipped up together to form a single file. I am not suggesting that you keep the document in xml format to pass around. Don't forget, that all of the Office users prior to Office 2007 can download and install the free compatibility pack. Not only does this provide them with Office 2007 compatibility, but also install all the new 'C' fonts that come with Office 2007. If you are seeing uneven spacing between paragraphs between Word 2007 and Word 2003 (regardless of whether it is a doc or xml format), it suggests that the interparagraph spacing has been done by inserting empty paragraphs rather using Space After in the paragraph style.

Thanks for the information. I have issues of messed up graphics if I move
to XML and back and I don't want to proofread the entire document (since it has legal implications) to look for flaws in formating and references. However I did try it to see if the watermarks would behave correctly. I got my picture watermarks in the entire document. I deleted them and then inserted the text watermark and the behavior was unchanged. Either document size is the issue or we have different versions of Word 2007. As for the separate issue of uneven spaced paragraphics when XML is imported in Word 2003. If there are blank paragraphs I don't know how to access them. No paragraph markers show up.

how do i insert a water mark on certain pages?
Let me first say thanks for your efforts.
I work at a large company and only have access to network printers. Also, I work in print layout mode most of the time. Did you try custom watermarks? Or just standard. After I saved and reopened the file the next day my custom picture watermark was in every section. I saved a custom text to the watermark gallery, deleted from the document and selected from the gallery and from that point it will work. I don't have much good to say about the Microsoft help files in this area. I stumbled around and finally figured out how to do it but not sure I can repeat it reliably. Also you have not answered my questions about why any scaling of a custom picture watermark other than auto results in a watermark that is top, left oriented. "Terry Farrell" wrote: Well I can only think that perhaps I just don't have a sufficiently large document to reproduce your bug. But some things to check that may cause these sort of problems with large documents: Make sure that when all apps are close - preferably after a fresh reboot - that your temp folder is completely empty. Make sure that you have a compatible locally installed printer driver set as the Windows default.

I think that we all agree that the MS Help files are both hard to find and
frequently not that informative. Graphic/picture watermarks are fine when resized or AUTO: I don't see any problem. However, if your right-click on the inserted watermark, select Format Picture and click on the Layout tab, you can change all the alignment/positioning as you can with any picture inserted into a document. I'm guessing that your Word Default is set to insert graphics In Line with text which is why it inserts in line with the paragraph mark it is anchored to in the Header. You can change the default if you want in Word Options, but you can right-click and change on an indivual basis too whether it is a WM or not. Terry "RN" wrote in message ...

I see uneven spaces between paragraphs with no way to make them uniform. So your concern is that there may be some hidden XML? "Terry Farrell" wrote: Have you tried this on a new, fresh document? This definitely does work: I cannot replicate the problem you are having which suggests to me that the document may be partially corrupt. Take a copy of the document and use SaveAs and choose the xml option. That may well get rid of the corruption and get the H&Fs working correctly. Terry |

how do i insert a water mark on certain pages?
Sorry, as usual, the whole process is too complex so I just gave up.
Eventually I guess I'd like to know the answer. So...just how does one change the headers to NOT be 'same as previous'? I can't find anything that lets me do this. This also meant the remainder of the instructions were useless, so I don't know if they worked or not. Sign...why am I writing this. I doubt I'll ever get an answer ANdrew "Pat Garard" wrote: G'Day Danalynn, Be aware that a watermark object (picture or text) is anchored in the Header area. A general answer would be: 1. Make sure that you use section breaks to separate the sets of pages that require differing Watermarks (including sections with NO watermark). 2. Insert the Watermark you would like for any section - initially it will be the same throughout the document. 3. Double-click, and modify, the Headers so that each section does NOT have 'Same as previous'. 4. Move to the (in your case) first section, double-click its Header - you will now be able to 'select' the watermark with a single (Left-)click. 5. Delete the Watermark (OR Right-click, choose 'Edit ...' and modify the Watermark for that section). 6. Repeat for the other sections until you have whatever Watermark you want (including NO Watermark) in each section. -- Regards, Pat Garard Melbourne, Australia _______________________ "danalynn" wrote in message ...

You haven't told us what version of Word you have, which makes it much more
difficult to help you. If you have Word 2003 or earlier, then when you access the header, the Header and Footer toolbar is displayed; on that toolbar there is a Link to Previous (or Same as Previous) button, which you turn off. In Word 2007, there is a similar button on the contextual Header & Footer Tools Design tab. -- Suzanne S.

I followed these instructions and they were extremely helpful but I have
gotten to a point in my document where my page switches to landscape. I have different picture watermarks to insert. I have made sure that the "same as previous" link is disabled...inserted section breaks. When I copy my information into the new page, the previous page's watermark is still there. -- Deedy "Pat Garard" wrote: G'Day Danalynn, Be aware that a watermark object (picture or text) is anchored in the Header area.

Now that you've unlinked the sections, you need to delete the watermark.
Open the header in the landscape section, select the watermark, and press Delete. -- Suzanne S.
