I have subscribed to many of the people in YouTube but I don't know as I got happy only when Kevin posted a new video. Many, many thanks Kevin for the video! Well, you many not believe but I have watched almost all videos in your channel and you are the only person to whom I have subscribed very first time for Tech Tutorial! Again, thanks! π

Absolutely THE BEST video to play the drinking game. Take a drink every time Kevin says "Watermark" in this video.
very cute
YO 3 UPLOADS IN 3 DAYS man you are working hard
Kelvin thanks π for you good jobβ¦. π
Watermark is a "word"
"Word" is a software
But the thumbnail is just a masterpiece ππ
You and your way of speaking are SPLENDID
In last video, I commented to make videoa on complicated topics not on simple topics
Kevin! YOU DID AS I EXPECTED
YOU ARE THE BEST YOUTUBER
YOU DESERVE 1M SUBSCRIBERS
Kevin – an idea for a video….trying to figure out how to make a looping video my screensaver ..
Thank goodness you watermarked your cookie recipe! Hate to see someone steal it and put you out-of-business!
thanks for this video. May I know if it's possible to add watermark on a PDF page? and also if it's possible to add more than one watermark on one page?
To insert a watermark on just one page: Select Design > Watermark > right-click the watermark you want, and select Insert at Current Document Position. The watermark appears as a text box.
this old out-of-work graphic artist prefers the U.S. mint way of making watermarks. but great tip anyways. I say gitch ye sum transparency paper to print on, print a negative image, and expose your paper to UV light……………….basically giving your paper a sunburn before printing on it. whatever is black on your overlapping transparency paper is what doesn't get "sunburned". It looks really cool when you hold it up to the light. When i was a graphic design student (roughly about the time the '90's banknotes came out with watermarks), i asked my graphic arts teacher how to make a watermark………….he looked at me with that "oh great, another one" look, and then rolled his eyes.
I have MS Word 2007.
0:00 – Hi Kevin. π
4:45 – 462nd thumbs up from me. π Cheers.
Thank you
@Kevin Stratvert: What about this idea: Direct download link from OneDrive, global VBA to replace "username", "date" and so on. Viola.
Editable templates for all workers in the company (you can edit, they download). IT department needs to install custom VBA on each PC. And add it to a custom meny.
Custom webpage to share links? Google sites? Teams?
KEVIN,
I have a problem in installing Ms Office…
The dialogue "Microsoft office encountered an error during the setup" appears and didn't install…. I have tried several times but all in rain.
So I request you to solve this for your students (me) and discuss this in a video….
Plz….plz….plz
Hey Kevin, as always another great vid, question, can you place a watermark in Excel? I would love to see a vid on that if possible.

Hello Kevin is excel file can I put watermark?
Please make Windows 10 videos also.
sir how to see the pinned apps in windows 10 sir can you please tell?????
Iβll have to try this out. Never added a watermark in word before π
Great video as usual Kevin. Any tricks on how to get a watermark onto an Excel workbook?
your channel is extremely under rated my friend. the way you make the present your tutorials and complement them with examples and wit are top notch. these videos deserve way more views. keep up the good work. your videos are helping a lot of people.
It's been years since I've had to add a watermark in MS Word. I don't remember it being this easy, so this must be an upgrade. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Kevin, can this be somehow protected? I mean if I share this document in native format (.docx) to my customer so he may give his comments or add corrections, he may also disable this watermark on his own PC and share the document elsewhere, right?
I remember when I was writing my thesis I was told to make a watermark for the final trial, then I did this
SUPER
Delicious like cookies
already did, its so easy, thanks by the way
thank you
I need your voice for TTS
Nice video. β€ from Bangladesh.
why cant I find this on the online version!?!?!!?!? please help…
Thanks Kevin ππΎπ
I love your content, Kevin!
Great video Kevin. I always liked your videos. Can you tell me the version of Microsoft Office you're using?
I know itβs not the same topic but cod you have a Vedic on how to add markers to a page to know where to cut once printed? Iβm resizing a planner page and would like to add the lines to know where to cut instead of having to get my ruler each time I need to cut.
Thank you Kevin for your video. It's good. But, how to add watermark on several pages only? For example, I have 200 pages, but I only want my watermark on pages 196, 197, 198, 199, and 200.
Great easy to follow presentation – Thank you
