Watermarks printing

#1

I use the code at the of this message to add a copyright text ( watermark )
on image printing.
I would like to have a text Opacity at 30%.
On print preview and normal view all is ok , but when I print the image the
copyright text has the background and opacity at 100%. ( so it covers my
image ).

I've tried also with AlphaImageLoader (.copyImg class) but the result is the
same.
So ... how can I print a image with a "watermark" one th background ?
Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance

<style>

img.diagram{
position:absolute;
top:0;
left:0;
}

..copy{
position:absolute;
top:30;left:30;width:200;height:30;
color:gray;
font-family:Verdana;
font-size:30;
/*filter:alpha(opacity=40);*/

filter

rogid

XImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImag e(Rotation=0,Mirror=0,Inve
rt=0,XRay=0,Grayscale=0,Opacity=0.30);

}

..copyImg{
position:absolute;
top:70;left:30;width:200;height:30;

filter

rogid

XImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImag eLoader(src='copy.png',
sizingMethod='scale');"
}

</style>

Add the watermark to every image with an image editor.

Ok ... the problem is that I've to add the watermarks on the fly ,
dinamically ( on client side ) , without modifing the original images, for
printing only.

Please do not top post, and remove sigs manually if your method of
posting doesn't do that for you, corrected this once.

Won't work if a user opens the image separately.

Given that the client can turn off or replace stylesheets,
surely this is pointless?

use server-side scripting, like PHP with GD

what is the purpose of the watermark?
if you are serving unmarked images people will be able to print them.
(eg by selecting view image, or putting the images URL in the location
field...)

if you are trying to protect your intellectual property you must serve
marked images, this can be done on the fly at the server side

As for hiding the mark in the print preview - what are you hoping to
gain by doing that?
