Question: Why is watermark not showing up in word?

Go to File>Options>Advanced and scroll down to the “Show document content” section of the dialog and uncheck the box for “Show picture placeholders”. I just found out that on certain pages the watermark will not show up yet on others it won’t.

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.

You asked, how do you make a watermark visible in Word? On the Design tab, select Watermark. In the Insert Watermark dialog, select Text and either type your own watermark text or select one, like DRAFT, from the list. Then, customize the watermark by setting the font, layout, size, colors, and orientation. If you don’t see the watermark, click View > Print Layout.
