This is the README file for the 'xwatermark' package. VERSION Version 1.5.2a, 01 February 2012 SUMMARY This package puts user-specified watermarks (graphics and arbitrary texts) on select pages of documents. It is more general than the packages 'draftwatermark', 'watermark', 'draftmark', 'wallpaper' and similar packages. The advantages of xwatermark over these packages include: the user can specify the watermark and color, the watermark position and orientation, the page(s) (all pages, odd pages, even pages, a particular page number, and a range of pages) on which the watermark should appear, and all the options are passed directly to package instead of being defined by macros. Also, multiple text and/or picture watermarks (or wallpapers) can be put on the same page or range of pages with little effort. Among other macros, there are the macros \newwatermark and \newwallpaper, both of which can be used to dynamically specify watermark properties for each page or range of pages. With the 'xcolor' package (not loaded by this package), all colors and those defined within the user document can be passed to this package.
