Corel Word Perfect: Pdf publishing

A friend and I have a problem: when we convert a file in Corel Word Perfect directly to PDF, any watermarks and gpahics get pushed straight into the pdf. This is fine - except our watermark is saved on every page. There shoudl be a repeat command for our watermark, which would save us many MB’s of space on every file, making them much more convenient. We can’t find it, and Corel’s support just plain sucks. They’ve got a broken website which won’t let us send questions, and they charge for phone support. Anyone have an answer on how to do this?

Try copying the text and graphics if wanted to a new .wpd without the watermark to a new file name or rename the old file name first. Then insert the new file into .PDF (What version of WP?)

Version 11; we haven’t been able to use any of our free pdf editors to do it either, though, and we don’t wish to shell out the big bucks for the full adobe edition.

I am using WP10. Click on ‘Help’ or press ‘F1’
Enter ‘watermark’
Scroll down to ‘deleting’ and click on ‘Display.’
Follow instructions to remove watermark.
Alternately
Can you save as a text, ‘.txt’ file?
Can you call for a new page without your watermark?

We don’t want to remove a watermark! We want to repeat it on every page without saving every page’s watermark seperately in the pdf version. This adds about 10 MB’s to the file.

:smack: Sorry I didn’t understand the details of what you were asking. I have no idea as to how to acomplish that.
SUGGESTION: I have downloaded drawings which had an Overprint Legend at 45 deg. to the paper with thin large point type face with the same density as the drawing lines to prevent copying and reslelling or otherwise misuse the drawings.
This might work for you with large point, thin type face, and set density as low as possible. This would be essentially a text file.
The watermark must be a .jpg type overlay of large size.
Please post results or final solution. Thanks, spingears.

Hmm… our watermark is really a picture, though.

If all else fails, you might try re-saving your watermark file at a lower resolution to cut down on the file size.
