I’m using the new Watermark feature and am having trouble with the watermark coming out all pixelated. Anyone else having this issue?

I’m outputting images 250 pixels in size and my watermark is 900 pixels. I’ve tried larger watermark sizes and smaller all with the same result — a super pixelated watermark. The images themselves are perfect. It’s only the watermark that I’m having issues with.

I’m creating the watermark in photoshop and then save-as to PNG format.

Any thoughts?

Why is that the metadata is deleted upon exporting jpeg via slideshow? is there a way to avoid that?

thanks!

Here we are on Lightroom 2.5 with no easy way to export with watermark. LR2/Mogrify is the way to go. I wrote a blog on how to create, then export a watermark.

Video doesn’t really work. It stops all of a sudden. Or is it only me…?

Thanks, for the information. I spent a couple of hour last night trying get an output with watermarks. Like others, I would like a one-button solution.
Keep up the good work. Maybe, Adobe should hire the guy or licensing it in a bundle (..S technique).

Thank you for this helpful tip. I just started using Lightroom and this is such a useful feature despite the clunkiness.

Tanya,

You must be using Lightroom 1. The Export to JPG option in Slideshow is only in Lightroom 2.

For those interested in giving LR2Mogrify a try I’ve a more in depth tutorial on how to use it a couple of different ways:

First I want to thank you for Lightroom, i love it… so far all my learning has been seat of the pants, pushing levers, experimenting… but I am starting to need specific help on things.

I have what may be a silly question, but my knowledge of computers has been based on what I have worked with and figured out… but for some reason I cannot find a way to PLAY your videos, perhaps I need some sort of plug in or something. SO far nothing I use (HP Quickplay, Windows media player for example) is even recognizing my download from your site…

any advice?

Thanks
Darlisa

Love the watermark. The only problem is I don’t have an export JPEG option . It will only export as pdf. The place where you have “export Jpeg” I just have “add” and “remove”. On the right side of lightroom, I just have one export button and it will only let me export in pdf. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
