Learn How To Create Text Watermark

In this tutorial, you'll learn how to create a text watermark using the Aspose.PSD library and add it to a PSD file. Watermarks are an essential element for protecting your images from unauthorized use or copying, and adding them to your PSD files is an easy way to ensure your work stays safe. With our step-by-step guide, you'll be able to create a custom text watermark and apply it to your PSD files in just a few easy steps.

We'll start by creating a simple text watermark using the Aspose.PSD library, and then we'll add it to a PSD file. You'll learn how to adjust the font, size, and color of the watermark, as well as how to position it in the image.

Please check the following code to find how to add the watermark to your PSD image. You can copy code to your IDE and run it.
Load PSD file and add new layer to draw a watermark on.

Copy

string src = "src.psd";
string result = "watermarked.png";

string watermarkText = "MyWatermark";

// Load a PSD file as an image and cast it into PsdImage
using (PsdImage psdImage = (PsdImage)Image.Load(src))
{
    Layer layer = psdImage.AddRegularLayer();

    // Create a solid color brush.
    using (SolidBrush brush = new SolidBrush(Color.Black))
    {
        // Create graphics object to perform draw operations.
        Graphics graphics = new Graphics(layer);

        Font font = new Font("Arial", 40.0f);
        float width = watermarkText.Length * font.Size * 0.8f;
        float height = font.Size * 2;
        float x = layer.Width / 2f - width / 2f;
        float y = layer.Height / 2f - height / 2f;

        // specify transform matrix to rotate watermark.
        graphics.Transform = new Matrix();
        var centerPoint = new PointF(layer.Width / 2f, layer.Height / 2f);
        graphics.Transform.RotateAt(45, centerPoint);

        // Specify transparency for the watermark color
        brush.Color = Color.FromArgb(128, brush.Color);

        for (int i = 0; i < 9; i++)
        {
            x = i % 3 * width;
            y = (int)(i / 3d) * height * 2f;
            // Draw a watermark on the layer using Graphics.
            var layoutRect = new RectangleF(x, y, width, height);
            graphics.DrawString(watermarkText, font, brush, layoutRect);
        }
    }

    // Export the image into PNG file format.
    psdImage.Save(result, new PngOptions());
}
