I want to print a very light gray watermark behind my main form.  When I use:
 

qp.SelectFont(qp.AddStandardFont(4))

qp.SetTextSize(ff.FontSize)

qp.SetTextColor(232, 232, 232)

qp.DrawTextBox(50, 50, 200, 200, "watermark", 1)

 

Then I save the document to a PDF file.  When I open the file in Acrobat, the text is very light gray.  But when I then print it, it's black.

I know this is likely not a QuickPDF problem, but has anyone experienced this?
