Insert a watermark

Insert a watermark

- [Instructor] An exciting feature in Google Docs is the ability to very easily add a watermark to your document. This is a transparent background, whether it's an image or text. To do this, click Insert and choose Watermark. You have two options, an image or a text. I'll start with an image and I'll click this big Select Image button. You have a choice of where you can get the image from. You can upload it to your computer. Take a screenshot from your webcam. You can paste the URL of an image from the internet. You can do a Google Image Search. And you can also use a photo that you already have on Google Drive. In this case, I already have our logo here, so I'll select it and choose Insert. Immediately, it puts it on every page in my doc. You'll see that it's made the background transparent and faded so that you can still see the text in front of it. Now, this is a choice and you have the option to control this. I'll uncheck the word "faded" and it brings it back to the full colors…
