Hello Hervé,

[EN version follows]

je souhaite avoir un fond de page en overlay

PCL
comment faire avec LibreOffice

cette liste est anglophone. Les questions doivent donc y être posées en anglais. Il existe également une liste francophone : users@fr.libreoffice.org

[EN]

This list is english-speaking, thus you should ask questions here in English. There exists a francophone list: users@fr.libreoffice.org

Here's a translation of Hervé's question (which I don't understand
8< -------------------------------------------------
I wish to get an overlaid page background.
With Word one may use a "print" field and set a PCL sequence there.
How can I do this using LibO?

Best regards,

Hi
I often grumble so this time i wanted to draw attention to some excellent behaviour on the users list. Most times, in most projects, a question written in anything other than English on an 'International' list illicits a lot of telling-off from various people.

I think this time the response was unusually excellent.
1. There is a direct link so the person can copy&paste their question to the right list easily
2. That message is translated so the list understands the action taken
3. There is a neat translation of the question so the list can understand.
So, now if someone does know the answer to the question they can answer in English (or French) and we can take it from there.

This raises the bar significant;y. It makes our list look like an extremely professional customer support list.
Regards from
Tom

+1 to that. And I believe he may be referring to a watermark - but I have
no idea how to do it!

IS he trying to create a document with a background image on all pages?

Yes, watermarks can be a solution - like on poster commented - but I was thinking more like an image that is a background for the entire page that stands out more than a watermark.

I have had need of this type of background image.

What we need to know is what is the user of the background image, so we can help properly. Adding a watermark is different than adding a background image for the page.

Hi
Hasn't there been some functionality added recently, to put watermarks into Pdfs?

I have been placing watermarks in PDFs for several years now. BUT, I do not remember if it was "technical" a watermark or just an image that looks like a watermark.

I hope my response will also help him;
if he clicks on that link, he should find numerous programs to do
what he wishes -

I just hope my french didn't send him in the wrong direction

If anyone wishes a translation of what I wrote, let me know & I'll
attempt to translate
boy oh boy am I rusty ... [in French that's oxidier - quite a
bit more appropriate, don't you think ;-)]

yes; and he'll find programs to do each of those functions in that
link I sent.

I want to apologize to all for my re-sending my messages -
I was concentrating on the french and did not realize I'd
addressed those 2 messages in error.

Thanks for your time and for your efforts speaking French

merci beaucoup.

There are a couple of French-speakers on the EN list, we just don't have time to read everything before Tom !
The French list are nearly as reactive as the EN list, with a helpfull community, don't hesitate to send lost people to them !

ps but that was very good work by all here
