Frequently asked questions

Can I repeat a text watermark across the page?

Yes. Select tiled placement and adjust the spacing to repeat the watermark instead of placing a single text item.

How do I position a single watermark?

Use manual placement and drag the text on the preview canvas. The preview also reflects changes to font size, opacity and rotation.
