Default Watermarks in a Word Document

I am working on a document with three columns on a page. However, I would
like to place the same watermark in each column. When I try to do this the
watermark only appears in the middle column. I would appreciate some advice
from anyone who might know how to do this or even if it is possible. Many
thanks

Default Watermarks in a Word Document

Based on a test just performed, this is possible. What I did was insert the
image to be used as the watermark into the header of the document, set it to
be displayed behind the text, dragged its dimensions to the required shape,
then copied it and pasted two more copies into the header and then
positioned them as required with respect to each of the columns.

A bit fidly, but definitely possible.
