You can also refer to the video tutorial to configure pagination controls in Magento 2 from our Magento 2 video tutorial series:

A watermark is usually a logo, stamp, or a signature superimposed on a photo with a degree of transparency so that it does not distract the objective of the picture.

A watermark is used to show the authenticity, ownership or copywrites of an image or product. It is used to prevent unethical competitors or spammers to steal your quality hard work and gain from it.

Magento 2 offers Images Watermark for the store owners to protect the copyrights of the store products and prevent the unauthorized use of the store images.

Apart from this, watermarks can also be leveraged to increase the brand awareness of a Magento 2 store.

The store admin can use the watermarks of various format like jpg, jpeg, gif or png, etc.
