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

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.
