  2. Select Advanced. 

You will see Custom Watermark and the option to Drag file(s) here or click to browse

  1. Drop the file in the box or select it and browse for the file you want to use as a watermark. 
  2. Select the position where you want the watermark to appear: Bottom Left, Top Left, Bottom Right, or Top Right.

    Upon refreshing your screen, you should see the asset includes a watermark.

The watermark stays in place when a user downloads the asset.

The only accepted format for a watermark is PNG. A transparent background and similar dimensions to the asset will provide the best watermarking results.

Watermark an entire Brandfolder

If you apply a watermark to the entire Brandfolder, the watermark will appear on all assets in the Brandfolder and all assets moving forward.

The watermark will appear in the center of each asset when viewed within the Brandfolder. However, when an end-user downloads one of these watermarked assets, the watermark won't appear.
