Feature Request: Add Watermarking Natively to Bridge
Feature Request: Add Watermarking Natively to Bridge
I’d love to see watermarking added as a native option in Adobe Bridge’s Export panel, similar to what Lightroom offers. This would be an excellent function to add to Custom Workflows.
When I saw Workflow builder get added to Bridge I assumed the ability to add watermarks was added or coming.
Why this matters:
- Lightroom’s watermark feature is excellent for quick branding during export. Bringing that functionality to Bridge and possibly Camera Raw's export panel would make batch workflows far more efficient.
- Many of us use Bridge + ACR for culling, edits and batch processing, and having watermarking built in would eliminate the need for Photoshop actions or external scripts.
Suggested Enhancements:
- Support both text and image watermarks (PNG with transparency).
- Position presets (corners, center), opacity, and scale relative to image size.
- Ability to save watermark presets and include them in export presets.
- Be able to preview the watermark image of a preset to validate it's correct before running the batch.
- Be able to override preset settings so tweaks don't have to be first saved into a preset before applying to current batch (unlike LRC).
- Ideally, integrate watermarking into Workflows to be able to include this key step.
Not Necessarily Suggesting but What If:
- Adaptive Position: What if after chooing a preset including the watermark image, size, opacity, etc. in a batch, there was an option for an AI engine to visually determine which side of the image (left or right) was less cluttered or opposite the subject and to place the watermark there.
