Is there a Mr. Word? I have a Q on printing watermarks

[Girac]

I have a word doc that has an image as a watermark, I want to print the doc without the watermark, but it need to remain as when the doc is viewed the watermark needs to remain.

i see that you can tick a box if you have a text watermark, but this isnt available when the watermark is an image.

Hi Girac,

You can do this by embedding the watermark graphic in a field coded as:
{IF{PRINTDATE \@ yyyyMMddHHmm}<> {DATE \@ yyyyMMddHHmm} "Your graphic goes here."}
If the graphic is not 'in line with text', simply position its anchor between the pair of double quotes.

Be aware, though, that because the PRINTDATE field doesn't support seconds, you might have to wait up to a minute before you can restore the watermark display after printing.

Note: The field brace pairs (ie '{ }') for the above example are created via Ctrl-F9 - you can't simply type them or copy & paste them from this message.

Cheers
