I'm using overleaf to create a document using the PNAS template and I have a watermark that says Draft in the background and I can't remove it. Please help.

documentclass[9pt,twocolumn,twoside]{pnas-new}

% Use the lineno option to display guide line numbers if required.

% Note that the use of elements such as single-column equations

% may affect the guide line number alignment. 



templatetype{pnasresearcharticle} % Choose template 

% {pnasresearcharticle} = Template for a two-column research article

% {pnasmathematics} = Template for a one-column mathematics article

% {pnasinvited} = Template for a PNAS invited submission



title{The role of  textit{egl-1} in programmed cell death in  textit{C. elegans} through inhibition of  textit{ced-9} and the upstream control mechanisms}



% Use letters for affiliations, numbers to show equal authorship (if applicable) and to indicate the corresponding author

author[a]{Thomas Munro}



affil[a]{Department of Life Sciences, Imperial College London}



% Please give the surname of the lead author for the running footer

leadauthor{Munro} 



% Keywords are not mandatory, but authors are strongly encouraged to provide them. If provided, please include two to five keywords, separated by the pipe symbol, e.g:

keywords{Keyword 1 $|$ Keyword 2 $|$ Keyword 3 $|$} 



dates{This manuscript was compiled on today}

your example file is not usable but

http://www.pnas.org/site/misc/pnas-new.cls

suggests that

setboolean{displaywatermark}{false}

is what you are looking for.

Alternatively to Carlisle's answer, the source of the watermark is in the .cls file (pnas-new.cls). You can comment out all the below lines (Ctrl + / toggles comments for a selected block of text):

%% Watermark 

newboolean{displaywatermark}

setboolean{displaywatermark}{true} % Set to false to remove the watermark

AtBeginDocument{%

  ifthenelse{boolean{displaywatermark}}{%

  RequirePackage{draftwatermark}

  SetWatermarkAngle{45}

  SetWatermarkColor{gray!20}

  SetWatermarkFontSize{3cm}

  SetWatermarkText{{fontfamily{bch}bfseries DRAFT}}

}{}

}

p.s. you can also see the comment for how to turn it off without taking it all out right within that block of code
