How to Change the Background in Microsoft Word
Also how to apply a watermark on a document.

1. Start Microsoft Word. 

2. We will now change the background.  Click Format

3. Click Background.  It may not show at first.  If you don't see background click the two arrows at the bottom. 

4. You have three options to work with. 

5. If you play with more colors and fill effects you will learn how to use those 2 options.  I'm going to focus on Printed Watermark.
