Add Graphic as a Watermark

There is an option “Add a Graphic” to add any picture in the place of Watermark. Click this option, a Small Box/Panel will pop up from where you can select your desired Picture as a watermark.

Recommendation: Select the picture that is PNG format because it has No/Transparent background which looks nice as a watermark. The same settings are available as are in the Text Watermark. Rotate, Anchor ( to select the position of the watermark), Size, Opacity, Horizontal Offset and Vertical Offset. They play the same function as in Text Watermark. When you are done with the Watermark Settings, Click Done.
