Watermarks

Print2Flash can apply watermarks to document pages. A watermark is text or an image that appears above existing document content, similar to a stamp. For example, you might want to apply a “Confidential” watermark to pages with sensitive information.

You may control watermark creation in the Watermark tab of Document Options window at manual conversion or with WatermarkImage, WatermarkScale and WatermarkTransparency properties of Profile object or with WatermarkImage, WatermarkScale and WatermarkTransparency options of Enhanced Batch Processing at programmatic conversion.

When configuring a watermark you need to choose an image file of PNG format in the Watermark Image field. This image is placed at the center of each document page above document content.

Image size is controlled by the "Scale relative to page size" field where you need to enter the image size expressed in percentage relative to page size. The image is scaled so as to fit the specified percentage of page width or height (whichever is smaller) without image distortion. Higher values make watermark image appear bigger while lower values makes it smaller. For example, if this value is set to 100 percent, the image is scaled so as to fit page width or height (whichever is smaller) and image touches page edges. Smaller values reduce image size so that image does not touch page edges.

Your watermark image file may contain transparency (alpha channel) so that it does not obscure the document contents below the watermark. You may create such transparency yourself when authoring your watermark image in a graphic editor or Print2Flash may assist you in this by correcting the transparency of your image. This can be achieved with Transparency Correction field. This field can accept values from 0 to 255. 0 value means transparency of the image is not affected. 255 means image is fully transparent (not visible). Intermediate values correspond to various degrees of transparency.
