Document design & watermark

Brand the mark card, admit card and fee receipt, add a watermark.

Fee receipts, admit cards and report cards can carry your school's own look — an accent colour, the seal, a signatory line and an optional watermark. Set it once and every document uses it.

Opening document design

From the platform/settings area, open Document design. The settings here apply across your printable documents, so you brand everything in one place.

What you can set

SettingWhat it changes
Accent colourThe highlight colour used on headers and lines.
HeaderWhether the school seal and name appear at the top.
SignatoryThe name/title on the signature line.
Footer textA line at the bottom of the document.
WatermarkA faint diagonal label across the page, with adjustable text and strength.

Adding a watermark

1

Turn the watermark on

Enable the watermark and type its text — for example your school name or “ORIGINAL.”

2

Set the strength

Adjust how faint or bold it is so it is visible but does not obscure the content.

3

Save and preview

Save, then open a receipt or report card to see it applied.

Keep the watermark light. It should be readable behind the text, not competing with it.

Where the design shows up

Your settings flow through to fee receipts, admit cards and report cards automatically. Change a setting and the next document you open uses it — no need to re-brand each one.
