Draft Background in Word

This trick shows you how to add a grey background text on your document. For example, when you have a draft document, and you want to make sure other people know it is a draft version. It is a good idea to have a background printed text, i.e. "DRAFT" on every page of your document. This feature is called "Watermark" in MS Word.
You can follow the same steps to create different watermarks. For example "SAMPLE", "DRAFT", "PERSONAL", or your own text.

Here's a sample



Here's how

  1. Select "Format" on the top menu of Microsoft Word, then select "Background".
  2. Select "Printed Watermark".
  3. On the "Printed Watermark" dialog box, select "Text Watermark". Then select your desire text or enter your own text into the "Text" field


  4. Click "OK" to finish.
