Eeee, and if i'm working on a doc of 50 pages with a word processor?, should i copy 'n' paste / import each page to my GIMP image? to get the efect?

Obviously not. You use Gimp (or whatever image processing software suits you) to produce the watermark image and then specify that image file as the OpenOffice.org Writer page background image.

Hi Ciro,
About creating the raster-image. Have to dig deep, it was a very long tim ago that i did that excercise. And most of that material i left at my former employer ;-( But to give an indication, i created myself an (encapsulated) post-script file. (PS is a nice programming language!) First attempt was plain with vi, later on with perl and its GD library. It's a long shot, and there are probably nowadays much more easier tools to do that job. Perhaps it can be done with gimp. As example i'll include an orange grid, made with Open Office. (snap to grid, draw line, copy&paste, change color) Adjust it as you like. Hans
