Re: [libreoffice-users] Watermark

Cool!  I add my thanks for that ... and I also saw the "watermark" 
option under "Format/Page style" as well (LO Version 7.4.5.1, under 
Mageia 8 Linux) ... thanks again

Regards
Fred James

1. Can this be done?

2. If yes, then how?

Thanks in advance.



Yes, this is possible and I've done it in the past.  What I've done is:

 * Use the "Format/Page" menu and click "Area" to set the page
   background image.  Use the "Fill" menu to choose a bitmap, and
   import your JPEG image.
 * Then, I use the "Transparency" tab to set transparency of the image,
   creating a "watermark".

This works in Writer 5.1.x and should function similarly in a more 
current version.


Hope this helps!

Peace...
