LR2: Copyright Watermark

Most of the times, when I export photos, I want to have my copyright watermark. Now Lightroom does not have the flexibility of Photoshop. If you want to insert not just a copyright watermark but a logo watermark, you can you use: LR2/Mogrify from Tim Armes.

  1. The LR2/Mogrify free version will limit you to the export of 10 images.
  2. The LR2/Mogrify export limit of 10 images is a global limit on ALL export actions, unless you register and pay Tim Armes.



  • LR3 includes it's own watermark system, but it's also applied during the export.

Lightroom LR2 can add a simple text watermark at the bottom right of the photos. It's good enough for me, in almost all cases. Lightroom will add the watermark only during the export.

Lightroom has 4 different export format options:

  1. JPEG
  2. PSD
  3. TIFF
  4. DNG (digital negative)

Selecting Add Copyright Watermark will adds the copyright watermark if the copyright IPTC metadata is filled in.
