Watermark
There are 2 different types of watermarks in onOffice enterprise:
-
- Watermark(Text)
- Watermark(Imageuploader)
You can set them under Basic Settings >> General >> Category: Watermark
The watermark for brochure and portal images is explained here.
You can enter an individual text in the 2 lines. The watermark is inserted with a maximum delay of one hour in all new brochures created afterwards and in all portal transmissions in the images. The text watermark is not displayed in the files, it is only generated during brochure creation and portal transfer. To check the watermark, you must create an brochure.

Setting whether the watermark is displayed on all brochure images.

Enter your individual text for your property images in lines 1 and 2, tick “Watermark in Images for PDF brochures” and save these settings.
By ticking “Watermarks in Images for PDF brochures”, your individual text will now be displayed in all images when an brochure is output
In the second section of the watermark you can add your company logo or another graphic symbol to your property images. This is configured in the basic settings >> General >> Category: Watermark(Imageuploader) .
The graphic watermark can only be integrated if you upload the images via “upload multiple files” . Images that have already been uploaded cannot be watermarked afterwards.

Tips on sizes
Suppose you have specified in Basic Settings >> General >> Category: Image Format that your images will be uploaded with a width of 1000px. And with the watermark settings you have set 40% of the maximum width or height by default, then we recommend to create and upload your logo with a width of 400px.
When uploading larger images, it is recommended that you adjust your logo accordingly. This prevents longer computing times when uploading your images.
If you want to upload images in different sizes, it is advisable to use a large logo, because resizing does not lead to pixel errors
