Hi,

I'm using Aspose.Pdf 3.6.1.0 and Aspose.Words 4.4.1.0 for .NET. According to another posts this should n't be an issue but I can't get watermarks in PDF show up. My Word template have a watermark inserted via Format->Background->Watermark option. I'm using Aspose.Words for mail merging and exporting to AsposePDF into a memory stream. After binding the XML stream and saving to a PDF with Aspose.Pdf, the result is a document with the images insides (I assuming this because the PDF is larger compared to the case of using the same Word document without the watermark), but the watermark is not visible (the only visible image is a logo at the left-top corner). I'm attaching the Word template (P1300001.doc), the xml and 2 image files I've got when I saved the files to disk instead of a stream (you can see that xml contains the floatingboxes), the sample.pdf generated and another pdf file generated with the same template but without the watermark (you can see the size diff).

Another issue is the page numbering. The template only has 2 pages as well as the PDF, but the page numbering says "1 of 18" in page 1 and "2 of 18" in page 2.

Thanks.

Hi,

Thank you for considering Aspose.

About the background Watermark issue, I don't think that it is supported in Aspose.Pdf. I will discuss this with the developers and will let you know as soon as possible. About the other problem that is of page number I have logged that issue in our bug tracking system as PDFNET-4142. We will investigate these issue and try to resolve them.

Thanks.

Thank you Adeel. Reviewing these issues more deeply I found that only happens with multicolumn documents. Using the same samples I attached, you will notice that changing from 2 to a single column, the PDF finally shows up the watermark and page numbering backs to normal. I'll appreciate the follow up of the incidents as most of our documents have these features.

Hi,

The problem has been resolved. Please try the attachment. Thanks.

Best regards.
