Rather, we are talking about a text, graphic or other element that is visibly located behind the continuous text of a document. This is used, for example, to indicate statuses such as &#8222;urgent&#8220;, &#8222;copy&#8220; or &#8222;draft&#8220; in the document. In Word 2019, a watermark can also be a personal signature or simply an additional stylistic device. We explain how to insert such a watermark and, if necessary, how to remove it again here. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading]<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Inserting a watermark in Word 2019<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text]Inserting a watermark in Word 2019 or even Word 2016 is quite simple. <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Once the relevant Word document that is to receive a signature or status indication is open, the first step is to click on the &#8222;Draft&#8220; tab in the menu.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=&#8220;h4&#8243; text_size=&#8220;h4&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Word 2019<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text]In the &#8222;Page background&#8220; area on the far right, select the &#8222;Watermark&#8220; field . [\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=&#8220;h4&#8243; text_size=&#8220;h4&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Word 2016<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text]Here you can click directly on the item &#8222;Watermark&#8220; in the bar that appears on the left. Then proceed in the same way for both versions.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]After the click, both Word 2019 and Word 2016 already have several watermarks to choose from. If the right one is already there, simply click on it and it will appear in the background on every page of the document. <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you want to insert your own personal watermark in Word 2019 or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blitzhandel24.com\/microsoft-word-2016-multilanguage-vollversion\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Word 2016<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> click on the tab &#8222;User-defined watermark&#8230;&#8220;. The dialogue window &#8222;Printed watermark&#8220; opens, in which the option &#8222;Text watermark&#8220; must be selected. <\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the text input field &#8222;Example&#8220; you can now enter your own text for the watermark. Below this are some layout options such as font, size, colour and layout (diagonal\/horizontal) with which you can further individualise the watermark.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image media=&#8220;1009&#8243; caption=&#8220;yes&#8220; media_width_percent=&#8220;100&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=&#8220;0&#8243; back_color=&#8220;color-208649&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8220;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8220;3&#8243; column_width_percent=&#8220;100&#8243; shift_y=&#8220;0&#8243; z_index=&#8220;0&#8243;][vc_column][vc_custom_heading]<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">How to remove the watermark in Word 2019<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text]But it may also be that the watermark document has become unnecessary. For example, if the document is no longer a draft. Or you want to send a text without your own watermark in the background. Then it makes sense to be able to remove the watermark again.[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=&#8220;h3&#8243; text_size=&#8220;h3&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To do this, proceed as follows:<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_custom_heading][uncode_list]<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">First open the corresponding document again <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Select the &#8222;Draft&#8220; tab.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the &#8222;Page background&#8220; area, click on &#8222;Watermark&#8220; again.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Select &#8222;Remove watermark&#8220; in the lower area.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/uncode_list][vc_column_text]Tip:<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Sometimes it can happen that the watermark can still be seen in whole or in part on the document. It may then be part of the header. In this case, simply double-click on the top of the document and then follow the steps above.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image media=&#8220;1024&#8243; caption=&#8220;yes&#8220; media_width_percent=&#8220;100&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading]<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Watermark still visible on Word 2019 document? <\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text]Then the element in question is probably a partially transparent background graphic. And it was obviously not inserted via the watermark function as described above. <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In this case, you can try to remove the graphic by right-clicking on the corresponding document. Now select &#8222;Format graphic&#8220; in the window, then right-click &#8222;Delete&#8220; again. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading]<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Is this also possible with images?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text]Sure, images can also be installed as watermarks in the background of a text. [\/vc_column_text][uncode_list]<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To do this, first click the &#8222;Draft&#8220; tab as before and then the &#8222;Watermark&#8220; button. Then select the tab &#8222;Custom watermark&#8230;&#8220; this time.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The dialogue window &#8222;Printed watermark&#8220; opens. In this case, activate the option &#8222;Image watermark&#8220;. The button &#8222;Select image&#8230;&#8220; appears directly below.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Click on it and the window &#8222;Insert images&#8220; opens. Now select the button &#8222;Browse&#8220; under the option &#8222;From a file&#8220;. Now a picture or graphic can be selected from the hard disk of the PC, which is simply clicked on and then activated with the command &#8222;Insert&#8220; and &#8222;OK&#8220;. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>[\/uncode_list][vc_column_text]Tip: <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the &#8222;Printed Watermark&#8220; dialogue box under the &#8222;Image Watermark&#8220; option, you can use the &#8222;Scale&#8220; and &#8222;Wash Out&#8220; functions to make the image larger or smaller and to make it more or less contrasty<\/span>.
