Transparent Color
Use transparent color
When you don't want any transparency, uncheck "Use transparent color".

Auto detect transparent color
Choose "Auto detect transparent color" to use the color value of the top left pixel (first pixel) in the BMP graphic as the transparent color.
You can also define the transparent color to be used (click to choose from the default color palette, or specify RGB values).

Angle
Sets the rotation angle (counter-clockwise, 0-360).

Opacity
Specify a watermark opacity percentage (0-100).
A value of 0 means the watermark appears behind the page content.
A value of 100 means the watermark appears in front of the page content.

Position
Use this to specify the position of the watermark. The value is in the form "X,Y" in pixel coordinates relative to the top-left corner of the image. The position can also take one of the following predefined options relative to an image edge, and center, without the user needing to specify the actual pixel offset of the watermark:
  • Top Left - top left corner

  • Top - center of the top

  • Top Right - right top corner

  • Left - left edge

  • Center - center

  • Right - right edge

  • Bottom Left - bottom left corner

  • Bottom - center of the bottom

  • Bottom Right - bottom right corner


  • To define a custom position, select the "Offset in pixels" or "Offset in percentage" from the dropdown list.
    X Offset
    Horizontal offset (in pixels or percentage) of the watermark relative to the left side of image.

    Y Offset
    Vertical offset (in pixels or percentage) of the watermark relative to the top of image.

    Page Range
    You can specify a single page, range of pages, or a predefined set of pages which each watermark will be applied to.
    To specify the page range, enter the beginning and ending page numbers (for example, 1,2,5-10, 20-end). Pages can be separated with a comma to define individual pages or a hyphen to define a range of pages.
    The predefined options include All Pages, First Page, Odd Pages, Even Pages, Separator Page (start), or Separator Page (end).
    Separator Page (start): causes a separator page to be printed at the start of each print job.
    Separator Page (end): causes a separator page to be printed at the end of each print job.
