How do I batch watermark a logo onto varying heights?

[juliew1589]

I would like to watermark a logo on a batch folder of photos, but the photos are different heights (but same width). If I use text in Photoshop it's not a problem, but if I use my logo the Action places it in different positions depending on the height of the photo. What I am looking for is a way to have the logo placed in a relative position to the bottom right corner of the photo. Say, 25px from the bottom and 0px from the right. I am unsure of how to achieve this relative placement.

Christoph, that's a good solution. I'll add that nudging works but is not obligatory. The relative move resulting from dragging the logo after alignment to the bottom-right of the canvas will be recorded.

Place... logo

Select All (Cmd+A)

Move Tool (V)

Align right edges

Align bottom edges

Deselect (Cmd+D)

<move x, y>

Save (Cmd+S)

Alternatively, Free Transform (Cmd+T) can be used to offset the logo after bottom-right alignment and the relative movement will be recorded.

In the long run it may pay off to look into Scripting for Watermarking.

But Actions may suffice and if the logo in question (mind posting a screenshot?) is hard-edged and does use only a limited number of colors it might be convenient to vectorize it and include the paths (»Insert Path«) in the Action – that way one would not need to keep an external image avilable and could transfer the Action more easily.

Here is a way to do this. The video language is in Portuguese but it's very easy to follow the steps: Inserir marca d'agua ou logo em várias fotos de qualquer formato simultaneamente - YouTube
