Watermark

Watermark can be text or image. The basic settings are: orientation, horizontal and vertical alignment and auto size. So the text or image can be placed in the lower right corner or centered on the page. The preview view provides a preliminary result for the current page in the preview. For simpler settings, you can use the appropriate methods described below.

Followed options is portrait, landscape, diagonal and rotate for orientaion.

Horizontal and vertical alignment determines the basic position of the watermark in portrait and landscape orientation. Horizontal alignment can be: left, center, right or justify for text only. Vertical alignment can be: top, middle and bottom.

If the orientation is diagonal, then the watermark is placed in a line from the lower left corner to the upper right corner.

If setting the rotation option, you can also set the angle.

When the autosize option is checked, the watermark will adjust to the page size and orientation.

Print and export has separate watermark settings.
