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 DXFont(textWatermark.Font.FontFamily, 40);
   textWatermark.ForeColor = Color.DodgerBlue;
   textWatermark.TextTransparency = 150;
   textWatermark.TextPosition = WatermarkPosition.InFront;
   textWatermark.PageRange = "1,3-5";

   // Add the watermark to the collection.
   ps.Watermarks.Add(textWatermark);
}

public void SetPictureWatermark(PrintingSystem ps){
   // Create the picture watermark.
   Watermark pictureWatermark = new Watermark();

   // Set watermark options.
   pictureWatermark.Image = Bitmap.FromFile("watermark.gif");
