 * 4) Browse to the image file you want to use as a watermark, click the image file, and then click Insert.
 * 5) If you want to resize the Draw frame, drag the resize handles at the corners and sides of the frame to the size you want.
 * 6) Click to select the image, click the Image Control button on the Picture toolbar, and then click Watermark.
 * 7) On the View menu, click Go to Foreground.
