How to Mark an InDesign Document with an "Indelible Watermark"

  • October 25, 2011

For CS5 and ActionScript:

I want to mark an InDesign document I've creating via scripting in such a way that an end user can not get rid of the marking (e.g., when distributing my extension as a trial version). Ideally, I'd want "Trial Version" splashed across each page "indelibly".

How can this be done?

TIA,

mlavie

Hi,

Try using watermark document preference:

app.activeDocument.watermarkPreferences;

There are some properties like text, font, style, rotatio, opacity...

Hope that helps.

Здраво!

Thanks Marijan, but couldn't a sophisticated customer change those settings himself - and thus get rid of the watermark?

TIA,

Yes they could.

You can create the watermark in a way that it can't be changed without a plugin.

Even then, it's not easy to prevent users from just removing your plugin to change the doc...
