[reportlab-users] Watermarks?

What command should I give to the canvas to be able to draw a simple watermark
(text that appears faded or greyed)?

I've tried all this, but the X is still very solid black.

c.setFont("Helvetica-Bold", 200)
c.setStrokeGray(0.25)
c.setFillColorRGB(0.1, 0.1, 0.1)
c.setStrokeColorRGB(0.2,0.5,0.3)
c.drawCentredString(PAGE_WIDTH/2, 1.0*inch, 'X')

Thanks,
Michael
