How to apply watermark in word document?

Answer 1

using the drop-down menu - insert - watermark. it's basically the same as inserting a graphic or .jpg file

Format a watermark
On the View menu, click Header and Footer.

On the Header and Footer toolbar, click Show/Hide Document Text to hide the text and graphics in the main document.

Select the graphic or text box.

Do one of the following:
To format a graphic, click AutoShape, Object, or Picture (Format menu). Your formatting options vary depending on the graphic you've inserted. For example, if you've inserted a picture, select Watermark from the Color box (Picture tab under Image control) to format the picture with preset brightness and contrast settings that work well for watermarks. You can also adjust the picture's brightness and contrast manually by using the Brightness and Contrast slide controls. To format the graphic so that document text flows above it instead of wrapping around it, click AutoShape, Object, or Picture (Format menu). On the Layout tab, click Behind text.

To format the text in the text box, select it, click Font on the Format menu, and then select the options you want. To rotate the text, click Text Direction on the Format menu, and then select the option you want. Because the text box is a drawing object, you can use options on the Drawing toolbar to format its borders, background color, and so on.
