Would having a DRAFT document[s] that you could open every time you 
want to start working with.  Then you remove the DRAFT watermark once 
document is finished. I have done this a few times over the years.  It 
is great for working with a document that is edited then emailed to a 
coworker, and then it is sent around to some other "editors" before it 
gets back up the original worker.

Thank you for reminding me of this use of DRAFT watermarks.

Going forward, you can abuse the classification system, by selecting
"Internal Only" as the classification. This will add a header, footer,
and diagonal message across every page, that says "This content is
marked Internal Only. Do not distribute it outside of the business." or
an abridgment thereof.

On second thoughts, it might be less scary to simply create a
classification "Draft", with slightly more appropriate messages,
displayed in a less in-your-face manner.


I don't know anything about the classification system, but it sounds
like something that's not necessary in my case.

I learned long ago, never proofread your own writing!   LOL These are
small condensed 1 page informational sheets for customers to help them
know more about their computers.  The watermark is simply to prevent
the wrong copy from being printed and then handed out.

Templates are great things.  But I don't see my need for a "draft" 
template to be an open ended need.


The docs are mostly 1 page, so I just load the last doc from recent docs 
in the LO menu, immediately save it with a new name, delete only the 
contents that will change, and go on.  This also eliminates having to 
drill down to the folder that contains the docs too.

LO 5.1.5, Windows 7

The help file says to go to Format -  Page and select the background
tab.  Then it says "On the background tab page...".

Unfortunately, no such tab exists.

I'm assuming they've moved the feature to somewhere else?


If it helps at all I have created a template with watermarks good to go:

Thanks, Dave, but it's not necessary.  I have few docs to do that need a 
"Draft" watermark, then I don't think I'll need it again in the 
foreseeable future.
