P: Lightroom Classic 12.2 Watermark being incorrectly positioned on Export

[ianr15326494]

Overnight and since installing Lightroom Classic 12.2 watermark is being incorrectly located on export. On preview before export the watermark is correctly positioned and clipped at the top. After export, the watermark has moved significantly vertically and is ruining the image. Everything was fine before running the update. Running LRC on MacBook Air with MacOS Ventura 13.1

So frustrating we have to wait till April for a fix... C'mon Adobe hurry up!

I'm having the same issue with my watermark. I've been using lightroom forever and this is the weirdest thing how my watermark moves up the image even though I have it anchored in the lower left corner. Please help this is slowing the process of my final edits. Right now I have to send out my images to customers with no watermark my brand is not on the images. HELP!!!!!!!!!

L'anteprima visualizzata su Lightroom mi posiziona la filigrana nel punto corretto ma, una volta esportato, il watermark risulta decisamente errato, essedo quasi a metà altezza della foto sia con immagini verticali che orizzontali. Spero si possa risolvere in fretta, essendo causa di forte disagio.

[Lisa Kim28965254czh7]

Sto riscontrando lo stesso problema... Purtroppo devo consegnare urgentemente dei lavori ai clienti, e non mi è possibile a causa di questo bug

[TheVito]

I'm experiencing this as well. Doesn't sit bottom right.

I'm also having an issue with Text Watermarks and them not doing a center justify or right justify. 

Rolling back to 12.1 fixed the issue.

Seit dem letzten Update habe ich das Problem dass jedes meiner Logos viel zu hoch in die Bilder gesetzt wird. Ich habe es mittlerweile mehrach mit anderen Möglichkeiten probiert, kann den Fehler so aber nicht beheben. Nutze stand jetzt die vorgängie Version, in dieser funktioniert es noch tadellos..

Gibt es bei Euch änliche Probleme?

Oder sind sogar schon Lösungen bekannt?

TEXT Watermarks in LR Classic 12.2.1 update exhibiting (newly) unwanted behavior.  Problem:  'ALIGN: LEFT, CENTER, RIGHT' is always aligning LEFT on the Exported JPG image, regardless of which option is chosen on the 'EXPORT - WATEWRMARK EDITOR' screen.  On that (preview) screen, IT DOES DISPLAY CORRECTLY.  But NOT ON THE EXPORTED JPG IMAGE file.

Hi Sameer, 

When can we expect the update which will fix the watermark issue? Kindly update on the same.

[Rikk Flohr: Photography]

Greetings all,

Updates for Adobe Photography products have been released.  The April 2023 updates contain a fix for this issue. 

If you do not see the update in your Creative Cloud Application, you can refresh it by hitting [Ctrl/Cmd]+[Alt/Opt]+[ R ].

Note: It may take up to 24 hours for your update to be available in your Creative Cloud app.

Thank you for your patience.

[wledge54]

Upgrade to 12.3 and the same issue, regardless of positioning, and age of the watermark.  Works ok in Photoshop.

[cybersimba]

Has this issue been fixed at all? Someone reported even as of end of april that it wasn't fix in 12.3. I haven't tried 12.3 but wanted to see if its actually fixed. Can anyone who tried 12.3 confirm if its fixed. If not, please report back so that Adobe can look at it. Thanks!

[Juan28627801c1y7]

Waiting on a response on this as well!

[victorhernandez]

I just cant believe that after several years with this issue, still being part of Lightroom.

[svlee]

It's August 26 and I am using LR Classic 12.5.  This issue is not fixed.  When printing I can use only some of my watermarks. Others won't print or show up on preview.  When I go to edit Watermarks, it sometimes shows the text box in the correct place, but without the watermark in it.  Please update. I am referring to graphic watermarks.
