Watermark in pdf.

Hi All,
Can you anybody help me on how to apply watermark on adobe interactive form.The watermark should not overlap the data that is being currently shown.
Cheers,
Tubai

Hi,
There is no option called watermark provided by Adobe, the work around is put an image on master page in the area specified and rest of the objects on body page.
the other way is suggested above.
For more info choose Help menu->Adobe live cycle designer help in Adobe live cycle designer and then under contents tab choose
Getting Started > Introducing forms and form designs > Parts of a form design

Can i add watermarks to PDF files using the PDF Pack?

Can i add watermarks to PDF files using the PDF Pack?

Hi Susannah,
Adobe PDF Pack does not allow you to edit a PDF file. For that, you would need Acrobat. You're welcome to try Acrobat for free for 30 days: see http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html for more information.

Add watermark to pdf stored in a table

Hi,
I would like to add watermark to pdf documents. The documents are uploaded and stored in the database. When a user will request a file, I would like to add the username and the timestamp in the requested file.
Any solutions for this (java stored proc, etc.) ?
Thanks !

Hi,
One option is to use a java pdf library such as iText ( http://www.lowagie.com/iText/ ). You could watermark the pdf's in java stored procedures.
Here's an example I found that does some watermarking (the PdfStamper section):
http://itextdocs.lowagie.com/tutorial/general/copystamp/index.php
One way to use iText would be to load the iText jars into Oracle and write a java store procedure to manipulate the pdf's in Oracle.

Can I watermark a PDF with Adobe Reader?

Embarrassing question. We have a client who wants a PDF of a document I do not want to give them a PDF copy of. Is there any way to imprint a see through image of the word "copy" across every single page of the document? Thanks so much. Catherine

You can however use Acrobat and put the watermark.
The trial version of Acrobat is good for 30 days.

Static watermark in pdf.

We have a PDF document, which should be signed by end user. Next time when someone view pdf from application or download it, system should show signature as watermark.
I have enabled signature and pdf watermarking. I am able to sign a document.
When I go to content infromation page, I see following information.
Web Location:      http://<server-address>:16200/cs/groups/public/documents/document/ndq0/mda0/~edisp/kbace43_4444004001.pdf
Get Conversion      (HTML)
Native File:      FormI9.pdf
All three are link but watermark only applears in web location link (http://<server-address>:16200/cs/groups/public/documents/document/ndq0/mda0/~edisp/kbace43_4444004001.pdf). When I download native file I don't see any watermark. I believe its because dynamic watermark only appears in weblayout of document.
In my custom UI I tried to show pdf as inline frame but its rendering native file so watermark is not appearing.
We want watermark information even if someone try to download the document, Should we go for static watermark?
As per documentation http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e10978/c06_watermark.htm#BABJFHIJ, there are few prerequisites for static watermark
1. User needs to check-in a new version. My question is if new version is getting checked in and watermark would get applied immediately then how user would sign that version.
2. Document should go to IBR for conversion: I have pdf and it does not need any conversion, Can't I put static watermark on it?
3. Is there any way (RIDC api) to get url of weblayout pdf
Thanks
Sanjeev

Hi ,
In UCM watermarking is only available for the weblocation content and that too for PDF (in case for docs it has to be converted to PDF using IBR) .
Native contents are the input file for ucm which is processed and displayed in the web location url . This processing could be conversion from word to pdf and it is here that the content is watermarked .
Thanks

XSL-FO and watermark on PDF file generated.

I am using XSLT / XSL-FO to convert my XML to PDF file for the users to take a printout. Under certain conditions I need to have a watermark COPY on the printed paper . Can XSL-FO/XSLT do this for me under certain conditions? Or has this something to do with the paper in printer having the COPY watermark.
Thanks

See http://xml.apache.org/fop/output.html#pdf-watermark
I know one more solution with table occupying entire page, with minus padded repeated header:...
<fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body">
    <fo:table>
        <fo:table-column column-width="170mm"/>
        <fo:table-header>
            <fo:table-row>
                <fo:table-cell padding-bottom="-257mm">
                    <fo:block>place background here</fo:block>
                </fo:table-cell>
            </fo:table-row>
        </fo:table-header>
        <fo:table-body>
            <fo:table-row>
                <fo:table-cell><fo:block>place document content here</fo:block></fo:table-cell>
            </fo:table-row>
        </fo:table-body>
    </fo:table>
</fo:flow>Customize padding of the header cell to place your watermark where you want on the page.

Add watermark to PDF

Hi
I am trying to add a watermark to existing pdf's in 10.4.11 & 10.5.7 using Adobe Acrobat Professional (8.1.3), having the watermark appear on top of page, show when printing, selecting a file source, fitting to page.
I have searched for an applescript solution, but have found only one, I do not no if doing a shell script is possible as I do not no shell scripting.
I have run into this link which uses pdftk
http://www.accesspdf.com/pdftk/index.html#docs
I have installed on 10.4.11 hoping it would work, but it appears not to as it looks like it was only set up for Panther (i could be wrong).
I also found this link
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=676855
which is what I was wanting, an applescript to run the above command to add a water mark, but this also appears not to work.
Does anybody no of and applescript, shell script solution to do what I am after please.
cheers

Check out Acrobat's Javascript API
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/jsapireference.pdf
page 272 has info on setting a watermark from file. The javascript can then be executed upon a PDF with AppleScript/Acrobat Pro's 'do script' command. I use the following to set a watermark from text:
tell application "Adobe Acrobat Professional"
do script "var d = app.openDoc({cPath:+path to PDF+,bHidden:true});d.addWatermarkFromText({cText:'PROOF', bOnScreen:false, bOnPrint:true, nScale:-1, nOpacity:.15, nRotation:20});"
end tell
The javascript code can be compiled as a string with applescript variables, tho I occasionally have to coerce it into Unicode text depending on which version of OS/AppleScript is at play.

Automatically watermark all PDFs with Acrobat 9 Pro

Is it possible to configure Acrobat 9 Pro so that all PDFs incorporate a predetermined watermark?

Thanks very much for responding.
I mean that what I'd like is that every time I create a PDF from a document or web page, it will automatically have my watermark inserted.
I'm a real rookie and do not know how to create a script or a batch process?

How 2 - embed watermark in PDF that obscures content if copied

I'm being asked to embed a watermark into corporate documentation that would - when an attempt is made to photocopy - obscure the content to a degree that the copy would be useless.
Can this be done in Acrobat, or is a thrid-party vendor app required?

I'm not explaining the demand well enough. You're right, the app won't effect the photo
copier. What I'm being asked to do ("attempt" is a better way of describing this) is to create a watermark in the PDF that has the attributes ofl:
a) not obscuring the document when printed from the hard-drive.
b) significantly obsuring the document if the printed document is photocopied (like the old school method of putting black type on a red background).
SHHEESH!
I've seen a few very expensive thrid-party apps that will allow for this type of "redaction", but I don;t have a $1500 budget for this little effort. So ...

Watermark a PDF

What workflow do you need to use to open an existing PDF, watermark it, and then save it with its original name? I've been playing with the watermark function but I can't get it to apply the tiff or jpeg watermark image to a pdf.
Message was edited by: heathbo

OK, I got it to apply the watermark image and save it. The problem I'm running into is that it renames the PDF with random letters. How do I keep the name of the original pdf?

Add watermark to pdf version 1.1 or 1.2

Hi all
I'm currently using iText to watermark PDFs and it's working like a charm.
Some people had some trouble in watermarking PDFs and I found it was all related to old version of PDF. So I searched on the web but couldn't find any information about the features and history of PDFs (Wikipedia is nice but doesn't seem to be complete).
Thanks
Serge

Thanks for your answer!
I found a way with iText to force the PDF version and it solved my problem.

How to watermark multiple PDFs on a mac

Hi,
I have around 100 PDFs that each need to have the same watermark. I've read that a batch sequence may be the answer but i can't find the 'advanced' menu option- does it have a diferent label as i'm using an apple mac?
is acrobat even the right program? i have access to indesign and photoshop if either would be better.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thank you

Hi,
Thank you for your help! I have tried this a couple of times now but it doesn't seem to be working.
I create a new custom action by dragging the 'add watermark' box over, and when i run the action on the selected files everything seems to work- in the box on the right it works it's way down each of the 'files to be processed', putting a little green tick after each.
However, i can then close and save that file and none of the files that i've supposedly just watermarked are watermarked.
Am i missing something obvious?
Thank you!

Watermarks on pdfs that don't show up except while working in acrobat

I have tried everything and can't get my watermark to show except when I'm working on the PDF in acrobat. Once it's been created, the watermark does not appear. I have checked the boxes that say: "show while viewing" and "show while printing". This is my first time. I've watched several videos, gone over and over each item in the diaglogue box. Help!

I really appreciate this help.
I'm using Acrobat X. And on mine, there IS a page range option--it's in the upper righthand corner of the dialogue box, in mine, it's red and underlined. You can choose all pages or select a page range. I selected all pages each time.
Now I'm really stumped. I went through your steps doing exactly what you said, first one one page and then on my 192-page doc (a copy of it), and it has worked perfectly on both!
I SWEAR I did exactly this before and the watermark did not show up in Apple preview, only in Acrobat Pro. I wonder what I was doing wrong? Possibly the "save as"? I don't know.
In any event, you are an angel. I will keep these instructions and follow them. I am really scratching my head as I read everything I could find about how to do it, the point was well made that you had to save it. I think I tried just saving it and also "save as"....but this has definitely worked and I am VERY VERY grateful to you.
Many many many thanks!!

Watermarks on PDFs on Android tablet

I have a set of Spider-Man CD-ROMs that Marvel released in 2004. They have PDFs with scans of the comic books, and each page includes a large "Marvel" watermark in the middle of the page that is supposed to show up only when printing, to prevent counterfeiting the comics.
This works fine when I view them on a computer. I have tried with Acrobat 11.0.08 and Acrobat Pro 11.0.10 and they work fine.
However, I also have a Samsung Galaxy Tablet that I bought a couple of years ago, and one of the major reasons I got it was so I could more easily read these comics. I have been through several versions of Acrobat Reader on the tablet over the years, and am currently on the latest, 11.7.2, but all of them have the problem that the watermark is visible on the screen. It makes the scans hard to read at times, especially the letters pages.
Is this a known bug with the Android version of Adobe Reader? Are there any plans to fix this? It's quite annoying.
Thank You!
Jeff Morris

P.S. Looks like this same question was asked by someone else in 2012 here:
Re: Looks like "COPY" has been stamped on all pages of PDF file.
He was told to e-mail [email protected] and that is what I did to start with as well, since that's listed as the support address if you look at the details of the app on the tablet. However, that bounced back with a failure message, but additionally sent me an auto reply message, and it said to post here instead of e-mailing.
That question from 2012 is still not marked as answered.
