Working with Watermarks

The watermark feature lets you add faint text to the background of reports created in PDF format. You can create the watermark to appear on different report groups. You can also open watermark settings and create watermark text, and set its size, color, and position on the page. This can be configured on a global, report group, or individual report level.

  1. To enable watermarks:
    1. From the OPERA Cloud Administration screen, select Enterprise, and then select OPERA Controls.
    2. In the search field, type watermark and then click the magnifying glass to search.
    3. Ensure the Enable Watermark for Reports Parameter is set to On.
    4. In the Settings panel, click the pencil icon to configure watermark settings.
    5. Select the watermark mode, add or edit the watermark text, update the x-position, y-position, angle, font size, and colors, and then click Save.
  2. To update watermark settings for a report, or to remove a watermark from a report:
    1. From the OPERA Cloud Navigation Bar, select Reports, and then select Manage Reports.
    2. Search to find the report to configure, click the vertical ellipses, and then click Edit.
    3. Scroll to the bottom of the page, update watermark settings using the drop-down menu, and then click Save.
