Let us visually label a Microsoft word document:
Open a word document, go to Home → Manual Classification.
In the Manual Classification dialog box, select Add to Header/Footer/ Watermark and choose a classification.
Depending on the option selected in the General Settings, the selected classification will appear on the Header/Footer/Watermark.
The same options are available in Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook. However, adding classification details as a watermark is only supported in MS Word. MS PowerPoint does not allow classification details to be added to the header and as a watermark. .
