Setting Watermarks

With Document Binder, you can add watermarks to binder documents, and register, duplicate, edit, and delete watermarks.
Registering Watermarks

Deleting Watermarks
Note
If multiple instances of Document Binder are running and you register, duplicate, edit, or delete a watermark, the change is only reflected in the watermark list of the Document Binder used to perform the operation. If you close all instances of Document Binder that are running, the settings are reflected the next time you start Document Binder.
If you create a watermark with the same name in multiple instances of Document Binder, the watermark is saved with a "(1)" added to its name in the Document Binder closed last. If the name of the watermark exceeds 31 characters, the last characters of the original name are deleted until the name including "(1)" becomes 31 characters.
If you edit a watermark that is set in a binder document, the watermark set in the binder document becomes unique to that binder document, and the icon displayed in [Watermark] in the [Page Settings] tab changes to . The edited watermark is registered as a newly created watermark.
The following file types can be set as watermarks.
JPEG (*.jpg/*.jpeg)
TIFF (*.tif/*.tiff) (For a multi-page TIFF image, the first page is used. TIFF images including transparent parts also can be used.)
BMP (*.bmp)
PNG (*.png)
GIF (*.gif)
The types of image files that can be set for watermarks may increase, depending on the codecs installed in your computer.
In the following preview and in the actual print preview, the position of watermarks may vary.
