In the Web Export Presets dialog, select the web export preset you want to modify, or
click the Add (+) button to create a new preset.

Select the Show Watermark checkbox.

4

Click the Choose Image button.

5

Select the image you want as a watermark, then click Choose.

6

Choose where you want the watermark to appear on the image from the Position
pop-up menu.

To adjust the opacity of the watermark, drag the Opacity slider to a new position.

When you’re satisfied with how your watermark appears in the watermark preview
area, click OK.

your images.
