For LaTeX users, this can -be achieved with the <i>draftcopy</i> package. This can deal with -many types of DVI processors (in the same way that the graphics -package does) and knows translations for the word ‘DRAFT’ into a wide -range of languages (though you can choose your own word, too). -Unfortunately, however, the package relies on PostScript specials, and will -therefore fail if you are viewing your document with <i>xdvi</i>, -and won’t even compile if you’re using PDFLaTeX. (PDFLaTeX -users need one of the other solutions below.) -<p/>The <i>wallpaper</i> package builds on <i>eso-pic</i> (see -below). Apart from the single-image backdrops described above -(“wallpapers”, of course, to this package), the package provides -facilities for tiling images. All its commands come in pairs: one for -“general” use, and one applying to the current page only. -<p/>The <i>draftwatermark</i> package uses the same author’s -<i>everypage</i> package to provide a simple interface for adding -textual (‘DRAFT’-like) watermarks. -<p/>More elaborate watermarks may be achieved using the <i>eso-pic</i> -package, which in turn uses the package <i>everyshi</i>, or by -using <i>everypage</i>. <i>Eso-pic</i> attaches a -<code>picture</code> environment to every page as it is shipped out; -you can put things into that environment. The package provides -commands for placing things at certain useful points (like “text -upper left” or “text centre”) in the picture, but you’re at liberty -to do what you like. -<p/><i>Eso-pic</i> is, in turn, built upon the package -<i>atbegshi</i>. That package has the capability to produce -watermarks <em>on top of</em> the other material on the page; this -doesn’t sound very “watermark-like”, but can be useful on pages -where the watermark would otherwise be hidden by graphics or the -like. The <i>atbegshi</i> command that <i>eso-pic</i> uses is -<code>\</code><code>AtBeginShipoutUpperLeft</code>; <code>\</code><code>AtBeginShipoutUpperLeftForeground</code> -is what’s needed instead to place the material on top of the rest of -the content of the page. -<p/><i>Everypage</i> allows you to add “something” to every page, or -to a particular page; you therefore need to construct your own -apparatus for anything complicated. -<dl> -<dt><tt><i>atbegshi.sty</i></tt><dd>Distributed as part of <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/oberdiek.zip">macros/latex/contrib/oberdiek</a> (or <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/oberdiek/">browse the directory</a>); <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/atbegshi.html">catalogue entry</a> -<dt><tt><i>draftcopy.sty</i></tt><dd><a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/draftcopy.zip">macros/latex/contrib/draftcopy</a> (or <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/draftcopy/">browse the directory</a>); <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/draftcopy.html">catalogue entry</a> -<dt><tt><i>draftwatermark.sty</i></tt><dd><a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/draftwatermark.zip">macros/latex/contrib/draftwatermark</a> (or <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/draftwatermark/">browse the directory</a>); <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/draftwatermark.html">catalogue entry</a> -<dt><tt><i>eso-pic.sty</i></tt><dd><a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/eso-pic.zip">macros/latex/contrib/eso-pic</a> (or <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/eso-pic/">browse the directory</a>); <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/eso-pic.html">catalogue entry</a> -<dt><tt><i>everypage.sty</i></tt><dd><a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/everypage.zip">macros/latex/contrib/everypage</a> (or <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/everypage/">browse the directory</a>); <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/everypage.html">catalogue entry</a> -<dt><tt><i>everyshi.sty</i></tt><dd>Distributed as part of <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/ms.zip">macros/latex/contrib/ms</a> (or <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/ms/">browse the directory</a>); <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/everyshi.html">catalogue entry</a> -<dt><tt><i>wallpaper.sty</i></tt><dd><a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/wallpaper.zip">macros/latex/contrib/wallpaper</a> (or <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/wallpaper/">browse the directory</a>); <a href="http://mirror.ctan.org/help/Catalogue/entries/wallpaper.html">catalogue entry</a> -</dl> -<p/><p>This question on the Web: <a href="http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=watermark">http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=watermark</a> -</body> |
