Enabling and Configuring Watermarks in Download Templates

Premium+ or Addon Features

To apply a watermark to your downloadable content, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to:
    Ressources > Download options

  2. Create or edit a download template.
    Scroll to the bottom of the template settings and select “Enable watermark.”

Once enabled, you can upload an image to serve as a watermark mask layer, which will be automatically applied over the downloaded content.

Step 1: Upload a Mask Image

Upload an image that you want to use as your watermark. This could be a logo placed in a corner, a copyright notice, or a semi-transparent “Draft” overlay across the image.
Example: A 200 × 100 px image with the word “Draft” on a transparent background.

Step 2: Set Opacity

Adjust the opacity to control how visible the watermark is. For example, setting the opacity to 70% ensures that the watermark is clearly visible without obstructing the underlying content.

Step 3: Define Sizing and Placement

You can configure how the watermark scales and where it appears on the image using the Sizing Type and Overlay Position options.

Sizing Type Options

  1. Original
    The watermark retains its original dimensions, regardless of the size of the output file.
    Example: A 200 × 100 px watermark placed in the center will always remain 200 × 100 px. On a smaller output, it may be cropped; on a larger one, it may appear relatively small.

  2. Fixed
    Allows you to set a maximum size in pixels.
    Example: A value of 100 constrains the watermark’s largest side (width or height) to 100 px. A 200 × 100 px image would be resized to 100 × 50 px.

  3. Percentage
    The watermark scales relative to the output size.
    Example: A value of 50% means the watermark will fill up to 50% of the output’s longer side. If the output is 1000 × 1000 px, the watermark would be scaled to 500 × 250 px.

Example Configuration:

We created a template named “Watermark” that crops the output image to 500 × 500 px.

  • Watermark file: 200 × 100 px

  • Sizing type: Original

  • Overlay position: Center

  • Opacity: 70%

This results in the watermark being centered and semi-transparent at its original size over the final image:
