[Tex/LaTex] How to add multiple watermarks

watermark

I want to put 2 watermarks on one document, but it only prints my last watermark.

I don't want to add 2 lines to 1 watermark. I need 1 going horizontal at the top of my page and one going diagonally across the whole page.

This is what I'm currently using:

\special{!userdict begin /bop-hook{gsave 180 20 translate 90 rotate /Times-Roman findfont 90 scalefont setfont 0 0 moveto 0.7 setgray (HEADER) show grestore}def end}

\special{!userdict begin /bop-hook{gsave 320 100 translate 75 rotate /Times-Roman findfont 180 scalefont setfont 0 0 moveto 0.7 setgray (BODY) show grestore}def end}

You can use eso-pic for this:

enter image description here

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{eso-pic,graphicx,showframe}% http://ctan.org/pkg/{eso-pic,graphicx,showframe}
\begin{document}
\AddToShipoutPictureBG*{%
  \AtPageUpperLeft{\raisebox{-\baselineskip}{\makebox[\paperwidth]{This is at the top, centred}}}%
  \AtPageCenter{\rotatebox{52}{\makebox[0pt]{\Huge This is diagonally across the page}}}}
Some text
\end{document}

[Tex/LaTex] How to add barely visible tracking dots to a b/w document

Here are a couple of options:

Method 1: Dot Grid, encoded "christian"

enter image description here

\setgrid[opt arg][opt arg]{letters}

\usegrid

The first optional argument sets the size of a grid cell, default is 10 pt (units aren't entered). The second optional argument determines dot size. The dots are periods scaled via. \scalebox the second argument gives the scale factor, default is 0.3. Each letter in the given word is converted first to a position in the alphabet (a=1 etc.) and then that alphabetic position is converted to a 5 digit binary number. Each such binary numbers is set as a column of vertical dots: 0 = no dot, 1 = dot. Columns are read from top to bottom (the first column is always filled with dots for reference). Thus, in the picture above:

c->3rd letter->00011-> no dot, no dot, no dot, dot, dot.

The \usegrid macro then sets the grid. In the example I put it in the left header. You can put it wherever.

Method 2: Dots in text, encoded "abba"

enter image description here

This one gives:

\markdoc{arg}{letters}

The first argument again sets dot size, and the second is letters. The letters a1,...,aj are converted to integers n1..nj as above. In the ith line of text a dot will be placed beneath the nith glyph. The letters can be recovered by counting glyphs (letters, punctuation, etc) from the left until you reach a dot, and then using the corresponding letter of the alphabet. This will occur on every page. Compile with lualatex. Code borrowed liberally from here: https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/58327/14100

[Tex/LaTex] How to write multiple lines as watermark?… and images with transparency

Using the draftwatermark package, you can use a \parbox, or a minipage, to have the text spanning several lines:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[a6paper]{geometry}
\usepackage{draftwatermark}
\usepackage{url}
\usepackage{lipsum}

\SetWatermarkText{\parbox{12cm}{%
  Mika Ike \\
  \url{mikaike@mikaike.mikaike} \\ 
  At My house}}
\SetWatermarkScale{.5}
\SetWatermarkColor{red}

\begin{document}

\lipsum[4]\lipsum[4]
\lipsum[4]\lipsum[4]

\end{document}

enter image description here

In the case of opacity for images, the draftwatermark package apparently doesn't provide many possibilities.

As an alternative, I'd suggest you to use the background package; since this package internally uses TikZ, you can easily control the attributes (opacity, color, position, etc.) for the background material. A little example:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[a6paper]{geometry}
\usepackage[scale=2.5,opacity=1,color=red]{background}
\usepackage{url}
\usepackage{varwidth}
\usepackage{lipsum}

\backgroundsetup{
contents={\begin{varwidth}{8cm}{%
  Mika Ike \\
  \url{mikaike@mikaike.mikaike} \\ 
  At My house}\end{varwidth}}
}

\begin{document}

\lipsum[4]\lipsum[4]
\lipsum[4]\lipsum[4]

\end{document}

The varwidth environment was used to have a box of adjustable width allowing multiple lines of text; a minipage or a \parbox could also have been used instead.

enter image description here

And, using an image:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[a6paper]{geometry}
\usepackage[scale=1,opacity=0.75,angle=0]{background}
\usepackage{url}
\usepackage{varwidth}
\usepackage{lipsum}

\backgroundsetup{
contents={\includegraphics[height=\textheight,width=\textwidth,keepaspectratio]{ctanlion}}
}

\begin{document}

\lipsum[4]\lipsum[4]
\lipsum[4]\lipsum[4]

\end{document}
