The Source options determine the source of the background:

Select From Color to add a color-based background.

Select Name to enter a file to be used as the background, or click the icon to select a file from the local computer. Enter the page number of the desired background in the Page number box.

The Appearance options determine the rotation, opacity and scale of the background:

The Rotation value determines the rotation (in degrees) of the background.

The Opacity value determines the opacity (transparency) of the background.

The Scale value determines the scale of backgrounds. Select the check box to scale watermarks to the target page. If this box is not selected then the scale is relative to the size of the original image used as the source for the background.

The Placement options determine the horizontal and/or vertical offset of the background from the left, right or center of the document.

The Page Range options are as follows:

Select All to add backgrounds to all pages.

Use the Pages box to determine backgrounds for specific page ranges. Further information on this process is available here.

Please note that it is possible to create more than one background for pages within the same document as long as they are not located within the same page/page range.
