Hi Javier, Great suggestion. I got the trial version and it seems to work. I prefer to use RBase products because if there are any issues, the dreamteam fixes them. Since R:PDF Works can do the job within the app, I was thinking of asking for an enhancement so that function can be completed from within a Plugin. In the meantime, I like your suggestion. Thanks! Mike

Mike, There are programs such as: http://download.cnet.com/A-PDF-Watermark/3000-2079_4-10908200.html that will add a watermark to a PDF document or documents from a command line or in batch mode that you can call from within R:Base. I use a similar program to convert scanned TIFF files to PDF files, all from within R:Base If you Google "add watermark to PDF with command line" you will get lots of options, many of them freeware. It is nice that R:Base has the flexibility that allows using other programs to supplement the built-in capabilities.

I am working with PDF files created by a scanner. Is it possible to add the watermark using a line of code within my application rather than using the R:PDF works application? My goal is to use the R:Twain2PDF plugin to extract information on a series of PDF files and add the watermark when the extracted data meets certain patameters. If not, I will have an enhancement request ! Mike Sinclair On Dec 4, 2012, at 10:39 PM, "A. Razzak Memon" <[email protected]> wrote: > At 10:08 PM 12/4/2012, Michael J.
