In a simple way?

You create a single page PDF file containing the "watermark" using
whatever tools you want (I used LibreOffice).  Then you use pdftk to
place the watermark behind each page of the PDF document:

  pdftk manual.pdf background watermark.pdf output manual-watermarked.pdf

I looked into ways of getting the FOP backend to do something like
that, but I was unable to get any of the XSLT approaches I tried to
work.  Maybe the docbook backend is easier to customize, but the FOP
backend is nasty...
