I second that. Even with a watermark, you will find some idiot sending out copies some "friend" who has "given them their word they won't send it to anyone else" only to have both existing and potential customers calling several weeks later about something they found in the "new" manual. If you have "PRELIMINARY" in light gray or red at a 45 degree angle across each and every page, covers included, it won't stop those idiots from sending our copies, but at least the recipient gets the idea not to trust the contents just yet.


We add a confidentiality footer to every page, which
is often easier on production although obviously not
as blatantly effective.
