Microsoft Word is an essential office productivity tool, providing various features to maximize support for users and developers. One of the copyright protection features in Word 2016 is the ability to add Watermark. In this article, Software Tips will guide you on how to insert and delete Watermark in Word 2016.

I. Inserting Watermark using predefined templates
In Word, the software provides us with several predefined Watermark stamps to protect various content. You can quickly use these predefined Watermarks, which prevent you from editing the content. If you want to create a customized Watermark, you can proceed to section II.
Step 1: Navigate to the Design tab on the toolbar and find the Watermark section. Then, choose one of the 7 available Watermark templates from the system to use directly.

Step 2: Immediately, you will have the Watermark stamp on your writing page. Since these are predefined templates, you cannot edit them.

II. Creating Custom Watermark
With custom Watermark creation, you can generate Watermarks using images, text, and more.
1. Creating Watermark using existing images
If you already have Watermark stamps with transparent backgrounds, you can use them immediately.
Step 1: Choose the Design tab on the toolbar and navigate to the Watermark section. Then, select Custom Watermark...

Step 2: Next, select the Picture Watermark option. To open the Watermark image file, click on Select Picture… and choose the Watermark file from your computer.
