Hiding a project watermark for a specific document

A watermark is a faint design appearing in the background of a page. Watermarks typically identify or decorate pages.

There are two kinds of watermarks:

• A project watermark is applied to every document in the project.

• A document watermark is applied to a single document, allowing each document to have an individual watermark.

A project may have a watermark that is suitable for most documents. However, you may not want to display any watermarks on a specific document. To achieve this, set the specific document's watermark to no watermark. Because document watermarks overwrite project watermarks by default, the document setting overrides the project setting and no watermarks are displayed for this document. The following procedure describes how to do this.

To hide a project watermark for a specific document

1. • Check that document watermarks are enabled

1. In MicroStrategy Developer, right-click your project and select Project Configuration. The Project Configuration Editor opens.

2. Expand the Project Definition category, then select Document and Reports.

3. Ensure that the Allow documents to overwrite this watermark check box is selected. This allows you to define document watermarks that overwrite the project watermark.

   • Create a blank document watermark

4. Open the document in Design view in MicroStrategy Developer.

5. Select Document Properties from the Format menu. The Document Properties dialog box opens.

6. Select Document.

7. Click Format in the Watermark area. The Watermark dialog box opens.

8. Select No watermark.

9. Click OK to return to the document.
