Watermarking is a versatile and invaluable tool that not only provides multiple benefits but is also simple to use and doesn’t incur any additional costs. Whether you’re a small business owner, content creator, or scholar, creating a watermark and incorporating it into your images and documents can be highly advantageous. In this guide, we will walk you through the process of creating a watermark on your mobile device, as well as talk about the benefits watermarking has to offer (it’s not all about copyright protection). So let’s dive in and learn how to make a watermark!
Before we look into how to make a watermark, let’s have a quick look at the benefits of creating a watermark. So what can you actually achieve by applying watermarks to your digital content?
To get started, download the iScanner app. It’s free, available for both iOS and Android, has a cloud sync feature (so you can edit documents that are on your computer without having to copy them to your mobile device), and there are no pop-up ads. Plus, there’s no learning curve whatsoever, so you can get straight to business.
You can do it from your gallery, email, or file manager. If the file is on your computer, you can make it available on your mobile device by creating an iScanner account (to learn how to do that, please see this blog post).
Enter your desired text, such as your name, company name or tagline, or a website URL, and tap Add.
Now comes the fun part of creating a watermark—customization. Adjust the font style, size, and color to suit your preferences. Experiment with opacity settings to achieve the perfect balance between visibility and subtlety. The best part is that you’ll see all changes in real time without having to save them first.
Creating a watermark for a lengthy document is much easier in the app because it will be automatically applied to all pages so that you don’t have to do it manually to each page.
Once you are satisfied with your watermark design, save it within the app by tapping Save in the top right corner. All done!
