To add a watermark, proceed as follows:
-
Select New rule.
-
Select Watermark.
-
Enter a name.
-
Select Add condition and define metadata requirements to target publications to watermark.
It is possible to add multiple conditions.
-
Add the text to display as a watermark.
See Watermark variables to add the user's name or time of reading to the watermark.
-
Define the text color by using a valid HEX color value.
-
Define the text's opacity (ranges from 0% to 100%).
- If publications are a match for multiple rules, the highest rule on the list applies.
- It is good practice to keep watermarks short.
- Adding a watermark to a structured document also adds it to its print version.
- With designed Reader pages, the Content component contains the watermark.
- The font for the watermark is the text font defined in the Theme menu. In printed version, the font is Helvetica.
Watermarks do not automatically apply to custom print templates. To display watermarks in custom print templates, it is necessary to update them with the following elements present in the default print template:
<div class="watermark"></div>#* @vtlvariable name="watermark" type="java.util.Optional<java.lang.String>" comment="A PNG data URL representation of watermark" *#- The associated CSS styles (
.watermark)
