Just to make certain that I understand this correctly. You are not declaring what you want the watermark to be, cfdocument format=PDF is automatically trying to create a watermark for you?
I wonder if this is a limitation on the developer version of CF that you have come across. I would do a search on the Coldfusion8 directory for that watermark file and then if it exists, just replace it with a blank .png file called 'watermark'.
