Default Using Watermarks with Text and Graphics

Hi,

We are using a watermark in a text report that includes objects, pictures,
and text boxes. The watermark shows through the text and tables, but not
through the objects, pictures, and text boxes. Is it possible to have a
watermark show through the objects, pictures, and text boxes? If yes, how
do you do it.

Your help is appreciated. Thanks!!

You would have to make the objects, pictures, and text boxes transparent.
You can do this easily with text boxes by giving them No Fill. Same for
drawing objects. Pictures might be more difficult.

depending on the length, can you create the watermark as a Wordart or
other graphic, make it floating/in front of text, and partially
transparant?
Then you need a copy on each page, of course...
