Top-Tier MS Word Legal Training- The Very Useful Watermark Feature

The Very Useful Watermark Feature Whenever I bring up subject matter that involves procedures whereby the location of the feature has moved from one version of the software to another, it is very important to know where the item has been newly situated. The Watermark is a very important feature that should be used to protect against wholesale copying. Let's take a quick look at the Watermark. If we choose to implement a watermark in MS Word, we make a decision whether we use a generic watermark such as "Confidential" "Client Copy" etc. or we can use a picture or logo type picture and finally we can use a "Custom Watermark" whereby we type in our own text such as our company name, website etc. If we print out the file, the watermark will be visible on your hard copy. If we send the file in MS Word to someone and the file is not password protected, then someone can simply remove it. Finally, if we save the file as a PDF, then the watermark will be present in the PDF on its own layer. Again, it can be accessed and removed if you don't password protect the PDF file from editing. In Adobe Professional, this can be done under Tools, Advanced Editing Functions and choose -Touch-Up Object Tool. And one should remember the many programs that break the passwords set on both MS Word and Adobe PDF. Keep in mind that the watermark can be implemented from the Adobe file since Adobe Professional and Nuance allow one to create a watermark in the newly created PDF. In MS Word 2010, we find the watermark under the Page Layout Tab. In MS Word 2013-16, here is how to get to the watermark feature: Click the Design tab. In the Page Background group, click the Watermark button. A menu plops down with a host of predefined watermarks that you can safely duck behind the text on your document's pages. Choose a watermark from the long, long list or customize your own. Note: To "flatten" the watermark so that it can not be removed, using Adobe Professional or Nuance, save the PDF with the watermark as "JPG's". Then, create a PDF file based on the JPG's. The resulting PDF might lose about 5% of the original clarity but NO ONE can remove that mark. You would have to re type the entire thing.
