When the "Apply foreground watermark" or "Apply background watermark" options are enabled, the watermark PDF file can be specified by setting a string value named "PDFWatermarkFile" in the registry at any of the standard registry locations.

 

A default watermark can be specified by setting a string value named "PDFDefaultWatermarkFile". This registry setting is not deleted after each document.

 

By default, the watermark is applied to all pages in the newly created document. If you want to exclude or include the watermark from the beginning or end of the PDF, you can use one of the following DWORD settings.
