Watermarks has disappeared

I'm not sure what is going on. When I apply my signature watermark to my photos using the export option (sending as jpg and I make sure the watermark option is checked) they no longer show on my images. If I just use one of the LR default watermarks, it shows up just fine. I have done nothing different nor did I change anything. I verified in my edit watermark window under watermark effects that all is set as should be. As I said, the default LR watermarks work just fine. My signature ones that had been working for a long time just out of the blue don't show anymore on exported images.

Any suggestions what to do? Could this be a bug with the newest LR update?

Watermarking in Lightroom does not work anymore. You have to use default. You can no longer export photos using custom fonts. Adobe said so.

Watermarking in Lightroom does not work anymore.

As a general statement-  Rubbish!

Fonts in Lightroom are limited-  Very True!

But I can create a graphic in Photoshop using images or fonts in Photoshop, that will apply as a "Graphic" watermark in Lightroom exports. No problem!

Adobe said so.

Can you give us a link to this statement?

Give details of your problem, or what you are trying to achieve. Perhaps someone has an answer for you.

Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.1.1, Photoshop 27.3.1, ACR 18.1.1, Lightroom 9.0, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.2 .

Hi skorg264,

Could you please post a screenshot of the export window showing the watermarks option and also one of the Edit watermarks window?

Thanks,

my saved watermarks have disappeared.  I had about 5 or 6 different ones with different years, fonts and colors but now none are in my stored watermarks.

HI phoenixblue,

Please take a look at this article Lightroom: Where did my Watermark go? | Rikk Flohr's Fleeting Glimpse Images and let us know if that helps.

Thanks,
