Is there any possibility to add a watermark on an export?

Hello @Thijs,

For now, there’s no option to add a watermark for every page.

you could however, add a PDF as a title page in your style or could even put a liquid-text as a footer for instance. Would that be an option for you?

@sven

Text in Header Text Nl was indeed my back-up plan. Where can you add text in the footer?

PDF as title page is just for the title page itself?

Indeed, the PDF is only for the title page @Thijs

For the header text: if you go to styles, click one and click on “advanced settings” you can see this :

You can add some Liquid in there (for instance

```auto
{% if period.accounts.assets-period.accounts.liabilities != 0 %}
This bundle is not definitive yet.
{% endif %}

```

Just an example of course.

@sven

I had already found the the header but not the footer as you mentioned above?

My apologies @Thijs, I meant the header (but for some reason I always say footer 🙄 )

So you only have an option to do something in the header.

you could also add something in the detail.text however (it’s where all the details are rendered).

I hope you see something as a workaround for you?

Hi!  
Reopening this post about watermarks after 8 years.  
Maybe 8 years later this is possible?

We’re trying to implement a watermark. The current options we are exploring are:

- Header/footer just on top/bottom. Disadvantage: can be unset
- Header/footer all over the page. Disadvantage: can be unset and makes it sometimes hard to read the detail text.
- Create inline draft. Inside the code.

Is there an option to put text of the header/footer to the background. I’ve tested class=“background-text” as html tag inside a table detail, but it doesn’t work. Is there another option?

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards  
Jelle

Hi @JelleBe ,

Thanks for reopening this thread, and apologies for the late reply!

Unfortunately, 8 years later, still no update on this. We don’t have this watermark functionality in place for PDF exports.

The good news though is that a complete review and redesign of how the PDF export functionality works is on our Product Roadmap for later this year.

We’ll take this request along in the project 👍 .

Keep you posted!

Kind regards,  
Robin

Hi Robin
