Author Topic: Watermark in template does not appear in RTF (Read 7362 times)

Paul Lotz · « **on:** May 23, 2015, 02:52:30 am »

Our team added a watermark to a cover page template. It looks fine in the template, but when we generate a document (RTF in this case), the watermark isn't visible in the generated document. Does anyone know how to resolve this?

The good news is, I found three threads on the same issue:

The bad news is, nobody replied.

I don't know what version you're using. The watermark is automatically lightened when generating.

The version I'm using has an option to select an watermark image on the generation dialog and a checkbox to "wash" the image. Looks like it was added in 12.0.

I am using 11.1.1113.
Perhaps this is the trouble: "If you choose an image that is already washed-out, no watermark is displayed at all." I will try with a different image.

Well, that wasn't it. I tried a couple different images (screen capture, another image I just had on my machine). In neither case did the image show up at all in the generated document.

Actually, rereading the help file, I think it means the it is washed out or not displayed in the template. The pictures I selected appeared as washed out in the template, I guess (they were not washed out originally), but they don't appear at all in the generated document.

I submitted a bug report.

The response:
"Thanks for passing this on.
I have reproduced this and passed it on for further review.
For your reference the issue number is: 15061722"

Is there a target resolution date / version for this issue?

James T
my rely was a little liteweight, but born of having seen this issue raised many times and obviously not part of the vendor's strategy for engaging with customers.

Start here
