photo editing - How to watermark a folder of photographs?


1) I dont know how to write a watermark, like a copyright notice, on a photo.


2) I have a folder of photos which I wish to watermark with the same watermark.


How should I write a watermark on a folder of photographs?



Answer



Since you seem confused, I suggest you use Picasa. This is a free software from Google. Once you have in installed, follow these simple instructions.


This can be done in Lightroom very easily and in Photoshop with a few more steps but it is overkill to spend money on an expensive software just for watermarking. Some people even do it from the command line using a shell command and free nconvert utility.


One extremely important thing to pay attention to is to watermark on export. Most people do not watermark their original files, that would not be reversible in case you need one day to make a print or a different watermark.
