Watermark Disappearing

Problem

When I assemble my text template using HotDocs Server, my watermark disappears.

Solution

Text watermarks do not work with HotDocs Server (or any browser based services, like HotDocs Cloud Services). To compensate, you need to turn your text watermark into an image and use it in Microsoft Word as a Picture watermark.

Add a Picture Watermark to a Template

1. Using image processing software, save the text or image you need as an image file on your computer.
2. At the HotDocs Library, select the template you want.
3. Click Edit.
4. On the Page Layout tab, click Watermark.
5. Click Custom watermark.
6. Select Picture watermark.
7. Click Select Picture...
8. Select the image file you saved earlier; then click Insert.
9. Click OK.
