Jimmi, In the past I have used ImageMagick for this, processing thousands of image files at a time (the largest run was on about 30,000 images). http://www.imagemagick.org/script/index.php 3-4 years ago, this ImageMagick method had some bugs with size and position of the overprint/watermark, but I think that has all been fixed now. More to the story... Normally you would not want to apply this overprint/watermark to original/source images. And, if you apply it to already existing "distribution" images (such as JPEGs) you degrade the quality of the existing JPEG. So what we were doing in ImageMagick was: For each source/TIFF image open TIFF image apply watermark/overprint SaveAs image in a different directory AS JPEG (with desired "quality" level) close TIFF image without saving Thus the original/source is not contaminated. Frankly, even this approach is not completely safe in my opinion because the manipulation of the open TIFF image creates a risk in case your hardware develops memory problems, etc. [We had physical memory go bad in the middle of processing and destroyed several thousand images -- fortunately we had backups.] Thus, if I were designing the workflow, I would rsync/copy the source images to a temporary directory, create the JPEGs and then discard the copies.
