Problems with PaintWatermark and How to use Background Image

1. offizieller Beitrag

    I am using: WPTools5 Standard and wPDF 2 Standard.


    I have troubles with watermark as background image, and also with drawing custom text as a

    watermark.

    So I need these questions answered:

    a) Instead of just painting the image on the canvas, is there a possibility to actually "add" a watermark image to WPTools document and save it in RTF file? Just like MSWord does. So if I open that RTF document with MSWord, that watermark image would be there.


    b) Is there a way to do the same thing with the custom text, instead of coding PaintWatermark method?


    c) What am I doing wrong with PaintWatermark method? When I draw text in it, it seems fine.

    But when printed to PDF, there is too much space between lines .

    Hi,

    >>a) Instead of just painting the image on the canvas, is there a possibility to actually "add" a watermark image to WPTools document and save it in RTF file? Just like MSWord does. So if I open that RTF document with MSWord, that watermark image would be there. <<

    Yes, add it to the header text, make it movable (positioned by page) and move it on the whole page. The image should be also visible when opened in MSWord.

    >>b) Is there a way to do the same thing with the custom text, instead of coding PaintWatermark method? <<
    No, only if the text is stored in a metafile image.

    >>c) What am I doing wrong with PaintWatermark method? When I draw text in it, it seems fine. <<
    You probably calculate the textheight wrongly.
