Add and edit backgrounds
A background appears behind text or images on the page. The background can be as simple as a solid color, or you can
use an image. You can selectively apply a background to only specific pages or page ranges in one or more PDFs. A
PDF supports only one background per page, but the backgrounds can vary from page to page.
