may totally obscure the text. On the other hand, drawing the watermark behind the text will
hide it behind any inline images.

When you add a watermark to your document, Nisus Writer Pro becomes highly modal in its behavior.
This is necessitated because the watermarking needs to take full control of the document window.
Due to this limitation of being unable to scroll the document, Nisus Writer Pro changes the zoom ratio
of your document so that you can see at least one complete page. If you had been in Draft View, Nisus
Writer Pro switches to Page View. However, if your view had been set so that you could see more than
one page of the document, Nisus Writer Pro will not change the zoom ratio.
