Watermark on only one page of booklet

[Guest]

Need this information ASAP if you possibly can. I'm using Word 2007. I'm
making a wedding program using a booklet template I downloaded into Word from
the Crane Stationer web site. Each sheet is divided into two pages. I'm
trying to place a watermark on only the last page. I know that in a regular
template, you need to separate the watermark page as a separate section. How
do I do this with a booklet ? I tried using a text box, but the watermark
didn't stay within it and the watermark went across the two pages. Help!

The first thing is to forget about the "watermark" designation. When
Word inserts what it calls a watermark, it anchors the graphic in the
header so it repeats on every page of the section, and you definitely
don't want that.

Under the hood, though, a watermark is really just a picture (or
WordArt) that has been sent behind the text and made light enough for
the text to show up. You can do that yourself by inserting a picture
-- but do it when the cursor is in the text of the last page, not in
the header, so it'll appear only on that one page. Then use the
picture tools to increase the brightness, decrease the contrast, and
set the text wrapping to Behind Text.
