  Question
  I am using a Microsoft Office 2003. I have created a watermark text. when I
command the pc to print the page, the page is printed with all its text
content, but the watermark text is not printed in full, that is, some
characters are missing. For example, if I have "Modern World" in my watermark
text, the printed watermark text would be something like" M de n o d". I
could not find the reason. Any useful assistance or help in solving this
problem would be highly appreciated.

  Answer
  In the watermark dialog, uncheck the "Semitransparent" option.

We don't know why that works -- it's magic! I don't know what it's supposed
to do, either; even without it, the watermark is behind the text.

  I tried this, and find the document text still completely blocks the
watermark text. It shows only in the margins and between paragraghs. Word
2003. I would like the watermark text to be completely legible.
