Enabling Watermarks On Previews
Administrators can add watermarks to all previews generated in FileCloud.
Password protected PDF previews are not showing watermarks. This is an issue with the third-party application used for previewing PDFs, and will be resolved when an update of the application becomes available.
Example of a watermark on a document preview in the Admin and User Portals. |

To display watermarks for previews:
- In the admin portal, go to Settings > Misc > Preview.
- Check Enable Document Converter.
- In Anonymous Access Watermark, type in the text, including any of the parameters listed below, that you want embedded on previews by anonymous users.
- In Authorized Access Watermark, type in the text, including any of the parameters listed below, that you want embedded on previews by authorized users.
Available parameters:
^USERNAME^ - The user who is viewing this file.
^SHARE_OWNER^ - The user who shared this file.
^FILE_OWNER^ - The file owner.
^OWNER^ - If this is a shared file, the user who shared this file. If this is not a shared file, the file owner.
^DATETIME^ - Date and time of preview.
^GEOIP_LOCATION^ - Geographic location of IP performing preview.
^LICENSED_COMPANY^ - The company listed on the current license.
Now whenever a user previews a document, they will see the watermark for anonymous or authorized access embedded in the preview.
