    Hi,

    Watermark text is nothing but combination of text font color shading, change the font foreground color as minimum of 5% gray color started with white.

    "Also i need to print 2 pages of report for vouchers 1st as original and second as COPY and maintain detail/footer integrity.Pls suggest how to do it"

    Send 2 copies to printer. Suppress the text field if PageCount = 1.

    eg
    formula = (PageNumber = 1)

    Hi,

    Don't use copies of 2 in this case.

    Make a select option control "Print Copy" , "Print Copy Only" & "No Copy" in UI screen, pass the value to crystal report formula field (get from cr formula field) .

    Call the Print command (optional) twice, depends upon the above condition.

    This option will help you more than one copy printout without original copy.
