Watermarking

Watermarking adds a visible mark to the photos in a published gallery. You add watermarks once in Settings, then choose one for each gallery in the gallery editor.

Watermarking is useful for a proof gallery, where clients review photos before receiving the originals.

Add a watermark

1. Open Settings › Portfolio › Watermarks
2. Click Add watermark
3. Upload an image or enter text, and give the watermark a name
4. Adjust the watermark settings
5. Click Add watermark

Folio supports two watermark types:

Type	Description
Image watermark	Upload an image, such as your logo, to use as the watermark
Text watermark	Type the watermark text directly in Folio

Each watermark has its own settings:

Setting	Description
Position	Where the watermark appears on the photo
Opacity	How transparent the watermark is
Size	How large the watermark appears

Watermarks can be edited or deleted from the same page.

Apply a watermark to a gallery

1. Open the gallery in the gallery editor
2. Open the Access tab in the left panel
3. Under Apply watermark, choose a watermark
4. Publish the gallery

Each gallery can use one watermark. Choose No watermark to turn watermarking off for a gallery.

Publishing

A watermark is applied when a gallery is published. If you choose a different watermark after a gallery has already been published, click Publish changes in the Share gallery dialog so visitors see the change.

Review the Desktop and Mobile modes before publishing when watermark placement is important.

Watermarking can be used with a resolution cap, set with Max resolution in the Access tab. Together, these settings let visitors view the gallery while holding back the originals until final delivery.
