Watermarks and labels are lines of text that appear on printed documents. Watermarks
are half-tone text appearing behind the main document content, and labels appear in
the header or footer margins of printed documents. Watermarks and labels can be added
to new or existing documents, and can be used to indicate the status of a printed
document, such as Confidential, Approved, Working, Approved for Construction, and so on.
Watermarks and labels can be associated with documents during document creation or
update, or by dragging and dropping the watermark or label on the document. Watermarks
and labels can also be associated with documents by using a load file. You can edit
watermark and label text when printing document files.
More than one watermark or label can be defined. Each string should be separated
by an ampersand (&). For example, &obj.Name&&obj.Description&.
Your system administrator may also configure watermarks and labels to print by default
(such as an "Uncontrolled copy" watermark). Refer to Document GUI configuration for information on strategies for watermarks and labels.
