The draftwatermark LaTeX package

The draftwatermark package extends LaTeX providing a means to add a textual gray or colored watermark on every page or on the first page of a document. Typical usage may consist in writing words such as "DRAFT" or "CONFIDENTIAL" across document pages. The package may remind in some sense draftcopy by Dr. Juergen Vollmer, but its implementation is lighter (as the reduced code footprint shows) and does not rely on postscript specials, making the package fully compatible with pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX.

The package focus is on simplicity, for complex layouts please consider scrlayer.sty in the KOMA script bundle or directly employing the new LaTeX hooks shiphout/background and shipout/foreground.

The draftwatermark package is copyright 2006, 2012, 2020 by Sergio Callegari [email protected].

This work consists of this README.md file, as well as files:

  • draftwatermark.dtx,
  • draftwatermark.ins and the derived files.

To install the package, run TeX/LaTeX on the installation script draftwatermark.ins and follow the instructions provided by the script itself.
