Underlining

Does anyone know if I can double underline a word, and alternate the colors of the underlines? (i.e. have one green underline and one blue underline for a word?). Thanks!

We do. You "can" but it is a bit of a fiddle.

You need to make your own underline, as a little graphic. Then you need to
carefully position it under the text.

To begin, insert a horizontal line (anywhere!) and set its colour to red.
Now, Duplicate it (Command + D) and change its colour to green.

Reveal the Drawing toolbar and use the Align command to exactly align the
two lines horizontally. Then select them and Group them.

Now you can drag them into position.

Cheers

Couldn't you after creating them save as a water mark then go to insert
water Mark as you need them?

If it's "fixed", don't "break it"!

You meant AutoText? Yes you could.

Not a watermark -- it needs to be in the text layer.
