Watermark Transparency Compatibility with MS Word

Hi.
A document used by our school has a watermark prepared by MS Word.
When i open the document by LibreOffice Writer, Watermark is not transparent.
I'm going to attach the MS Word document in which there are also screen shots of both cases.

You guys are doing great work. 

Thank You in advance..

The needed settings are disabled in the UI. I have no idea why.

Regina, what are the needed settings and where can I find them?

The property is draw:image-opacity. Save the document in odt-format. Open the package e.g. with 7Zip. You see a file styles.xml. Open it for editing. Therein find the watermark by its name "WordPictureWatermark7208853". You see its draw:style-name is "Mgr3" and the other one "Mgr1". Find those styles. They have the attribute draw:image-opacity="100%". Set it to e.g. draw:image-opacity="10%". Save it, close editor, update package. Open the changed file. Notice that the watermark is transparent.

This shows, that LibreOffice is able to render transparent watermarks, only the import does not set the needed attribute value.

Looks like a duplicate. Image is supported in Word as watermark but not in Writer.  Also plain image transparancy is not imported correctly either, see bug #120762
 about that.
