Image overlay as watermark. Is it possible in AEM 6.1

[Selva123]

Hi,

we have a requirement where we need to apply a particular image as watermark to the existing images in DAM.(In particular only to thumbnails)

Currently in OOTB , we can apply a text as watermark to images. But is it possible to apply image as watermark.

please suggest some inputs.

Thanks,

Selva

Yes it is possible. There is a workflow which needs to be added in a DAM update asset workflow.

For more details here is good artcilet.

Hi 

Please have a look at this documentation:- https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-1/administer/content/assets/watermarking.html (search for "watermarking image")

//

Click the Arguments tab and specify valid values in the various fields, including text, font type, size, color, position, orientation, and so on. Instead of specifying watermarking text, you can add a watermarking image in the Image field. Click OK to save the values. 

I hope this would help you.

Another reference link:- https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-0/develop/ref/javadoc/com/day/cq/dam/commons/watermark/package-...

// there is a class "Class ImageWatermark" you can use it also.

Thanks and Regards

For those who read this - you can add an image watermark to a digital asset by writing a custom AEM workflow step.
