To insert a background "watermark" in your OpenOffice.org Writer documents:
- Select Format -> Page from the menu.
- Choose the tab labeled Background
- In the first select box, choose As Graphic
- Use the Browse button to browse your hard drive for the graphic you want to use. Note that a few suitable graphics can be found at http://www.freephile.com/wiki/
- Use the Type options to determine the placement of the image, and whether it repeats (tiles) across the page.
This is just boring text but you can't miss the background watermark. Perhaps it is just a bit too large, and a teeny bit too dark. Adjust to your liking. Images and tutorial by Greg Rundlett, all rights granted under the GNU Free Documentation License.
