I recently downloaded the 4.3 version of Lightroom. I tried to use the IDENTITY PLATE to watermark a photo and print it out and the function does not appear to be working..I have used the feature many times in previous veresions. I am able to see prior versions of my watermark under the edit tab, but they do not show up on the photo...

*** this is NOT a question about watermarking - I know how to center watermarks ***
I'm a long time LR user (currently LR 4.2), but just recently started producing a series of limited edition prints that include a graphical identity plate centered below the image. As LR insists on having to scale the identity plate, the result is that I can never produce a print where the text appears crisp and sharp. Rather there's always some perceptible softness in the text.
I'm using PhotoShop to produce the graphical identity plate and have produced it in the exact dimensions as it should appear beneath the print. When I bring it into the LR print module, however, it immediately scales it to 100% of the page size so I'm left with no option but to select a scaling % that most closely represents the original size.
Is there a solution to this? I only recently purchased PS CS6 and am thinking I should probably be doing this within that application, but honestly I'm just more comfortable in LR. For this print, I have the page size set to 20" x 30" and the cell size containing the image at 16" x 24". I think I know the correct process to duplicate this within Photoshop, but verify the procedure if LR isn't up to the task.
According to the Help for Lightroom V1.0, I can choose to print my identity plate on each image on the page:
>To have the identity plate appear on every photo in a multiphoto template, select Render On Every Image. The identity plate is centered on each photo and can be moved, scaled, or rotated using the controls in the Overlays panel.
I can move the ID if it is rendered only on one image.
I cannot figure out how to move the ID plate once I have clicked "render on every image." It seems to be fixed in the center of each image.

I am relatively new to Photoshop Elements. I followed the instructions to add a watermark to multiple photos. I am unhappy with the results and want to remove the watermark. Despite not saving my watermarked photos, I see the watermark. Is there a way to preview the watermark before anything gets permanent? Is there a way to remove the watermarks on all the photos and start all over?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm using LR 3.6 with the latest updates. I'm trying to add a watermark (which I've done befor and just did) and for some reason the program does not allow watermark as a choice. I can see the box,and the watermark dropdown tab, I just can't choose it. This is true of all my photos now even the one I just successfully added a watermark to.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm currently using Lightroom 4.3 (although don't mind upgrading to 5.0 if needed).
I'm trying to find a way to add a border + watermark around an image upon export. A bit of background: I shoot music concerts and have a series of 20-30 images per show that I need this done, some are landscape some are portrait orientation. And keeping the correct photo order is important as I need to show the concert as it happened. I know it can be done in Photoshop via actions, but I'm really trying to move away from PS and do everything in Lightroom.
Pictures speak louder than words, so here is the before (without border or watermark) and the after (same photo, nothing lost, with white border around and the photographer name on the bottom right).
I have edited about 100 photographs over the past few weeks using Lightroom & Photoshop - stupidly, I was concentrating so much on ensuring that my images had a watermark on them, i managed NOT to keep a non-watermark version for sales.
Is there any way I can remove the watermark that is on the JPEG file without having to go through the hassle of re-editing them as it is unlikely I will be able to get the same results as before.
I should say that all of my files have been exported OUT of Lightroom & into a seperate file on Windows Explorer.
I cannot get the watermark to show up in LightRoom4 once I export the photo. I can see it in preview but them it disappears when I export photo.
View 19 Replies View RelatedI only have my watermarked folder of a clients images. I always save one folder of watermarked, one high res for them. I have looked everywhere and even used a recovery program to try and find the original folders. So in short the only images I can use are the watermarked ones. Now when I import the photos, the thumbnails show the image without the watermark, and it isnt until they are being imported, one by one the watermark is being applied to the image i see.
So if it is being reapplied, then that means the image still exists separately from the watermark.Is there anyway to seperate the two without having the orignal file? Or to have the watermark not reapply when importing?
I mistakenly put a watermark on a photo. Is there a way to remove it other than cropping? I don't want to lose part of the photo.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHow to overwrite an existing watermark. For instance, let's say I have a watermark called "website" with opacity of 50.
If I want to change that opacity to 60, I go to Lightroom->edit watermarks (or pick it straight from the export menu), select that watermark, and change the opacity to 60. Now I have an option to save the watermark. I don't want it to be a new one, I just want it to overwrite the existing watermark with the name "website". But when I type that name in, it says that's already in use. So now I have "website 2", "website 3", "website 4", etc which are all the same watermark with small changes, because it wouldn't let me overwrite any of them when I made a change.
After I edited my Raw images shot by Nikon D600, I'd like to export them to Jpeg format with my watermark. The watermark will not show if I exported the images in original size (6016 x 4016) as shot. However the watermark works fine if I resize the images to a smaller size, such as 1200 x 1024.

Alternatively, I created the watermark in Photoshop, put in the text, rotated it, and saved it as a jpeg. I can't get a clear background. It appears jpeg doesn't support that. SO, I saved it as a .png (jpg and png appear to be the only two formats supported for a graphic watermark in Lightroom). It looks FINE, except in Photoshop the text is WHITE, which is what I want in Lightroom, but every time I open the .png file in the watermark editor in Lightroom, it comes in with BLACK text...
