Popular question: Why can’t i add a watermark in word?
You can’t add a custom watermark to a protected document – you have to unprotect it first.
Additionally, how do I turn on watermark in Word? On the Design tab, select Watermark > Custom Watermark. Choose Picture Watermark and select a picture, or choose Text watermark and type your watermark text in the Text box. Click OK.
Also, why does my watermark not appear? However, sometimes a watermark may not be displayed. The most common reason for this is that by default watermarks are displayed in the background, behind the document’s content. In most cases this is not a problem as the content of most documents is largely transparent.
Considering this, why won’t watermark show up on first page? Watermarks are built in the header and having different header settings can make them disappear on other pages. They are simply graphic elements that are in the header.
