draftwatermark – Put a grey textual watermark on document pages

The package provides a means to add a watermark (typically a light gray piece of text) on every page or on the first page of a document. Typical usage may consist in writing words such as DRAFT or CONFIDENTIAL across document pages.

The package performs a similar function to that of draftcopy, but its implementation is output device independent.

As of December 2020, the package relies on the new shipout hooks directly provided by LaTeX. For users of older versions of LaTeX, the package also provides a legacy version of itself (that is automatically loaded, currently being at release 2.3) which relies on the everypage package. Note that this legacy version will progressively lag behind in terms of features.
