From: Viking48 on 8 Feb 2010 14:36 I have a Word document that was converted from a PDF. It has DRAFT on all the pages and I am having a hard time removing it. I can use the arrow in the drawing tool bar and highlight small pieces of the word DRAFT and remove but it is a very time consuming process and I would have to perform this for 400 pages. The PDF also has this problem but the program indicates that the watermark was not created with Adobe. Any ideas? -- Viking
From: Stefan Blom on 8 Feb 2010 15:11 Watermarks are objects (usually graphics, WordArt, or text boxes) anchored to the header paragraph. If you activate the header/footer area, for example by double-clicking the header, can you then select and delete the watermark? -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Viking48" <Viking48(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:26327A1D-2E94-4B06-AC42-1394211A0B44(a)microsoft.com... >I have a Word document that was converted from a PDF.

From: Graham Mayor on 9 Feb 2010 02:16 There is no shortcut to removing this if you don't have the original document that created the PDF. The whole point of PDF is to inhibit document reconstruction in this manner, and while not perfect it is often effective. You might have better results with OCR software that is more discriminating, but without the original document you will have a lot of work to do to recreate it from the PDF. -- <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> "Viking48" <Viking48(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:26327A1D-2E94-4B06-AC42-1394211A0B44(a)microsoft.com... >I have a Word document that was converted from a PDF.

I was afraid you would say that.
