Settings->Watermark

---

A watermark consists of text or graphics that is added to the generated image files, either in the background or foreground. Zan Image Printer allows you to watermark an image with a text string, a BMP graphic, or both. If your image is in another format (e.g., JPEG or GIF) and you need to use it as the watermark, try to convert it to BMP format first.

Start bates numbering at:
Bate Numbering (Bate Stamping) is used in the legal and business fields to sequentially number the generated images so that they can be easily identified later on.
To stamp a Bates number (number of pages printed) on the generated images, you would use the Bates Number macro in the watermark text which is set on the Watermark - Text Annotation dialog.
To start Bates numbering from a specific number, enter the number at which to start the Bates numbering in the "Start bates numbering at:" field. Zan Image Printer automatically increments the number each time a page is printed.
