Watermark Action

02. March 2025

Elaine Foley

The watermark modification applies an image overlay. You need to store your watermark image (png, gif, tiff) on an absolute path on the server. Then you can define a distance from the four borders in pixels (margin left, margin top, margin right, margin bottom). You can leave the margins empty. You must set the opacity (0.1 to 1) used for transparency and an aspect ratio - the ratio of the width of a shape to its height (e.g., 8:5, 16:10, and 1.6:1 are the same aspect ratio).

e.g., 0.5 for half the size or 2 for double the size
