Anyone know how to remove a watermark from a .DOC file?

Discussion in 'General Chat' started by skunker, Mar 28, 2007.

    A friend sent me a Microsoft Word file that is about 130 pages long. However, each page has a watermark on it and I can't read the content due to the watermark.

    Do any Microsoft Word gurus know how I can remove this watermark so I can read the content?

    The DOC file was converted from a PDF.

    Thanks.

    Generally watermarks are added for a good reason, if someone did that then ask your friend for a copy without the watermark.

    Thanks guys,
    I have a document that was written and published by the US MILITARY in 1944 and it is in the public domain. However, some stupid commercial company watermarked it so you can purchase a copy from them

    Screw that. This is public domain material and I am allowed to copy the text from it, however, since there's a watermark on it, I have to manually go through each page and highlight the text , etc.
