Default background on template document

0
Our customer uses a Mendix app to produce output with Microsoft Word (using Templates and Generate Document). They requested to add an default background image in the (Word) template, almost full page (A4) instead of using custom paper in the printer (reducing costs). How to achieve this?

In the past i have done this by overlaying a pdf with the background image.

In the community commons module there is a java action called: OverlayPdfDocument

Create the pdf with the document template and also use an ulpoaded pdf with the background image and use the java action to overlay.

For PDF you can use Maarten’s suggestion. For other documents there are some other sollutions. Here an example with templater:

Yes you need a license but it is only one time $200 from the company that creates the Java library that is used in this module.
