Hello,

thanks everybody!!!

First of all, Carsten, vielend Dank; I was using custom old files.
With texlive it's compiling just perfectly fine!

This is getting very close... Now there's the frame around the page
but how could I add that watermark in the frame?

Also, note that rather than the cover page I am interested in the content pages:

http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/magazines/mag-0001.pdf

Notice how the frame is empty on the left for even pages and on the
right for odd pages.

The page numbering goes also to the frame. How to do those two things?

I was not expecting as much help as I got from you guys, thanks a lot!

Pau
