Behavior when setting the offset for image watermark placement options in PDF-XChange Printer Standard SOLVED

[rakunavi]

Hello all,

I noticed that the behavior when setting the Offset for the Placement Options of the Image Watermark in PDF-XChange Printer Standard is different from the behavior when adding a Watermark in the PDF-XChange Editor. If there is no special reason, it would be easier for users to understand if the two behaviors were consistent.

In the following verification video, the image is placed in the bottom right corner and the Horizontal and Vertical offsets are varied from 0 mm to 60 mm, respectively. Please note that the direction of image movement is opposite between PDF-XChange Editor and PDF-XChange Printer Standard.

Hoping that the above information will be of some help to you.
Thank you so much for your continued support.

Hello rakunavi,

Thanks for the suggestion.
I agree with you that unifying those would make things easier for everyone - so here is the ticket with the request for that:
#7216: Editor and Standard driver watermarks settings differences and request for unification.

As usual - we will be updating this topic as soon as there are any news in the ticket.

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello Rakunavi,

Unfortunately this ticket was rejected, and the reason for that given by our developers is that this could break compliance, and as such those differences will have to remain. We would also have preferred if those could have been unified, but it seems like it is not possible, and now both you and me know the reason.

Kind regards,
Stefan
