I have a 15 page document; I created a watermark for the whole document, 14 pages are perfect, however on page one it is "broken" up in the middle of the text phrase, this is not a view problem as it prints out exactly as I see it in print preview or page layout view. I've close the document and re-opened, just in case but the problem remains. Any thought?

The watermark is there but distorted or occluded? There may be an intervening object.
Can you attach a screenshot? If so, it should be a screenshot of the watermark both when you are in header edit view and in print view.

You can attach files to your posts by clicking on the "go advanced" button at the bottom and then clicking on the paper clip icon.

Hi Charles, hope I have done correctly, attached both screen shots.

Please make a copy of your document.

In the copy, at the beginning, create an empty paragraph.

In that paragraph type or paste the following:

=lorem(50.6)

Then press the Enter key.

That should insert several pages of filler text. Delete everything after page 3.

Attach that document to your next post.

Here we go not sure it I've done correctly, if not please let me know.

--------CK amendment--------
You did it as specified but ended up with your contract. In this case, I wouldn't have seen the problem without that because the problem was in the formatting of the text of the contract.

Anyway, I removed the attachment to protect your work product.

Your paragraphs 1.3 and 1.5 have white highlighting applied. This occludes the watermark. Change it to "No Color."

Thank you ever so much, this is what happens when people comment on documents and mess with the formatting, it didn't even occur to me to check that. What had in fact happened was that they changed the "style" settings - no idea how or why. I changed the style for those paragraphs then re-set the font size, auto numbering.

Glad I could help.
