Aam Mistakes
- Opacity bahut zyada: Reading mein interfere karti hai
- Galat position: Important content cover karti hai
- Pages bhool gaye: Sirf first page par watermark
- Security ke liye watermarks par rely karna: Ye secure nahi hain
- Poor contrast: Watermark invisible ya bahut distracting
Nishkarsh
Watermarks branding, status indication, aur basic deterrence ke liye effective hain. Apni privacy needs aur customization requirements ke basis par sahi tool chunein. Yaad rakhein watermarks real security nahi dete - sensitive documents ke liye encryption use karein. Watermarks design karein ki visible hon bina document readability mein interfere kiye.
