Adding watermarks and backgrounds
A watermark is text or an image that appears on top of existing document content when a
document is viewed and printed. For example, in a list of tasks to complete, you could use a
watermark to place "Complete" over the task list when the tasks are complete. A background is
an image that is placed behind text or images on the page.
