Microsoft Word 2007 offers a variety of ways to protect your important documents. One way to easily identify and secure your personal documents is to apply a watermark to your document. A watermark may be a picture or text that shows in the background of a document and is the trademark for the author of the document. Watermarks usually indicate the status or priority of the document. For example, the watermark might say “Urgent,” “Confidential” or “ASAP.” An example of a watermark is shown below:
The steps to apply a watermark are listed below:
1. Open Microsoft Word 2007.
2. Select Page Layout from the menu bar.
3. Select Watermark.
4. Choose a Watermark from the given options or Select Custom Watermark.
5. Choose your preferences for the watermark.
6. Select Apply.
A watermark can be added to a document at any time. You can also opt to modify or remove a watermark from the document at any time. So whenever you feel the need, just leave your mark!
