Best Practices for Using a Watermark Keep your watermark simple and monochromatic. Keep it as small as possible while being legible. Use a vertical watermark. Put your watermark on the edge of the photo. At the end of the day, the decision to watermark or not is up to you.

A resized image between 500 and 1000 pixels on the wide side works for most watermarks. Drag and drop your logo into your new document or select the text tool to add text. You can use any color. If you use black, you can easily change it once you have created the custom brush.

Use a custom watermark On the Design tab, select Watermark > Custom Watermark. Choose Picture Watermark and select a picture, or choose Text watermark and type your watermark text in the Text box. Click OK.

Keeping your watermark in the corner with the opacity set to around 50% or less is a good idea. The most important thing to notice is that it looks professional. Watermarks distract when they're too bold, but also when they look shabby and as if they were made using Microsoft Paint.

Watermarks are just objects anchored to the header. Double-click the header to activate the header/footer area, and then you will be able to select the watermark and change its properties, including resizing it.

If it's too small, you lose clarity and quality and have to scale it up. A resized image between 500 and 1000 pixels on the wide side works for most watermarks. Drag and drop your logo into your new document or select the text tool to add text. You can use any color.

Resizing and Repositioning Select, hold, and drag the adjustment handles to change the size of your watermark. (The top, center handle tilts the watermark to the left and right.) To reposition your watermark, hover your cursor over the watermark until the cursor becomes two crossed arrows (see figure 12).

Ideally, the watermark should be visible without detracting attention away from the contents of the image itself. For that reason, it's better to use a watermark that's free of any color or anything else that's too eye-catching.
