watermark only 1/2 shows

[Lobo]

When I put in a watermark, e.g. the word 'DRAFT,' only part of the word
shows, e.g. "D A T." What am I doing wrong? I've reduced text size and it
makes no difference. Print preview shows the entire word, but when I print
I get gibberish.
TIA ... Lobo

In the Printed Watermark dialog, clear the check box for "Semitransparent."

Thanks. What is the purpose of the semitransparent box? I'd just assumed
that meant the lettering would be a light gray color that the doc's words
would be clearly read through.

I think that applies only to clip art. Or maybe no one knows what it's
supposed to do, but it certainly doesn't work correctly with text (WordArt).
