The package provides a means to add a watermark (typically a
light gray piece of text) on every page or on the first page of
a document. Typical usage may consist in writing words such as
DRAFT or CONFIDENTIAL across document pages. The package
performs a similar function to that of draftcopy, but its
implementation is output device independent. As of today, the
package relies on the new shipout hooks directly provided by
LaTeX. For users of older versions of LaTeX, the package also
provides a legacy version of itself (that is automatically
loaded, currently being at release 2.3) which relies on the
everypage package. Note that this legacy version will
progressively lag behind in terms of features.
