MS Office Forum / Word / Page Layout / June 2006Suppressing a Watermark
I've got 2 pages laid out in book-fold (page on left, page on right). I want to add a watermark to *only* the first page. But watermarks seem to only apply to the whole document, and I can't get a watermark to appear just on the first page. Now, I know about section breaks and how to apply different headers and footers on different pages, but I can't do this with a watermark. There's gotta be a way to do this - anyone know how? Thanks! Joel Hi Joel, Use File|Page Setup|Layout and check the 'different first page' option.

To have a watermark on just the first page, you have to check the "Different first page" box on the Layout tab of Page Setup. If you have already inserted your watermark, it will be anchored to the Header and may or may not appear in the First Page Header. In either case, View | Header and Footer, select the watermark, Cut the watermark from the Header, then (if necessary) Paste into the First Page Header. Alternatively, you can create the watermark manually in the Front Page Header (see "HOW TO: Create a Watermark in Word 97 and in Microsoft Word 2000" http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=211324).
