Hello Peter:
Sorry to be so slow to answer. I had to travel for meetings with bankers and lawyers today and that kept me busy.

I find that Gray 30% or Gray 40% font color works best for my watermark(s). Select the text in the watermark, then select the Font Color toolbar icon. Or, Format | Character | Font Color from the menu.

Hi Doug Thompson,
thanks for your reply, I have now inserted the graphic for use as my watermark and selected the proper wrap. I do not seem to be able to reduce the intensity of the image, and it dominates the page. How does the colour feature assist with this?
thanks,
Peter Gorman

I am using Open Office 2.0.4 I am trying to find a function in Open

Confidential, etc. Is there a link somewhere that pre-prints these
captions onto the page prior to printing.  I have located the
watermark feature, but this does not permit the user to type a
caption, and when it inserts a graphic, there is no control on the
level of transparency to allow any text to be viewed clearly.



 You can use a frame to hold your watermark.  That allows you complete
 control of content, font, size, and transparency (color, actually) plus
 positioning on the page.

 Once you insert the frame, select the Wrap property "In background" to
 cause it to be completely overwritten by the document text.
