public void SetTextWatermark(PrintingSystem ps) {
// Create the text watermark.
Watermark textWatermark = new Watermark();
// Set watermark options.
textWatermark.Text = "CUSTOM WATERMARK TEXT";
textWatermark.TextDirection = DirectionMode.ForwardDiagonal;
textWatermark.Font = new Font(textWatermark.Font.FontFamily, 40);
textWatermark.ForeColor = Color.DodgerBlue;
textWatermark.TextTransparency = 150;
textWatermark.ShowBehind = false;
textWatermark.PageRange = "1,3-5";
// Set the watermark to a document.
ps.Watermark.CopyFrom(textWatermark);
}
public void SetPictureWatermark(PrintingSystem ps) {
// Create the text watermark.
Watermark pictureWatermark = new Watermark();
// Set watermark options.
pictureWatermark.ImageSource = ImageSource.FromFile("Watermark.png");
