Using Watermarks in Word 2007

[Shades]

I tried to use the "watermark" tool from the "Page Layout" tab. The problem
is that it only puts half of the word on the page. I.e. i put "draft" on a
document and one page has "DR F" or "R F" or "D A T"

How do i getthe full word on each page?

Clear the check box for "Semitransparent." No one knows what it does,
anyway, except sometimes cause the reported problem.

Now i have a problem when i have the watermark on a page with tables on it.
Some of the Cells are shaded at 12.5% but the watermark doesn't show even on
the "clear" cells. is there a way around this?

Thanks again

I don't think so, no. You can copy the watermark and paste it into the
document body, anchored to text in the table, with In Front of Text
wrapping, but I doubt you'll be happy with that solution.

Not really. One would think that this wouldn't have been an issue, but ohwell.
