Add watermarks and background objects

You can add text, watermarks, logos, or other images that appear in the same place in the background of every page of your document. These repeated elements are called master objects. The more transparent you make the object, the more it fades into the background behind the document content.

Add a master object

  1. Tap the More button in the toolbar, then tap Document Setup.

  2. Tap Insert button in the toolbar.

  3. Tap the button for the type of object you want to add, then tap an object (swipe to see more choices).

  4. Adjust the size and position of the object on the page.

  5. To adjust the transparency (opacity) of a shape, an image, or text, tap Format button, tap Style, then drag the Opacity slider left to make the object more transparent.

  6. To prevent the object from being moved or deleted accidentally, tap Format button, tap Arrange, then tap Lock.

  7. Tap Done.

    The object appears on the background of every page in the document or section.
