  Watermark - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Watermarks were first introduced in Bologna, Italy in 1282; they have been used by papermakers to identify their product, and also on postage stamps, currency, and other government documents to discourage counterfeiting.
In philately, the watermark is a key feature of the stamp, and often constitutes the difference between a common and a rare stamp.
Watermarks were nearly universal on stamps in the 19th and early 20th centuries, but generally fell out of use and are not commonly used on modern issues.

 Stamp identification often lurks in watermark   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The papermaker's watermark was not intended to appear on the printed part of the sheet, but because the sheets were sometimes imperfectly aligned with the press, parts of a papermaker's watermark can sometimes be found in stamps from the outer rows or columns of the sheet or panes.
Stitch watermarks, which usually appear as a row of short parallel lines, are caused by the stitching together of the ends of cloth aprons on which the pulp is assembled in the paper making process.
Other watermarks are visible to the eye by holding the stamp obliquely to a light source, by holding the stamp in front of a light source or by viewing the stamp against a fl surface.

 Digital Watermarking World: FAQ
Watermarking (now-a-days) is mainly used for copy-protection and copyright-protection (1.4).
A watermarked image in which the watermark is imperceptible, or the watermarked image is visually identical to its orginal constitutes a invisible watermarking.
Your watermarking algorithm should not be secret since it will have to be revealed in court the first time you use it, so it's security must be based on a secret key and that key should be different for each image that you distribute.

Enya's 1988 recording, Watermark, achieved landmark success with her groundbreaking use of multi-tracking technology to fuse new age and Celtic themes and instrumentation.
While there are plenty of subsequent albums from Enya that are great, "Watermark" has some of her best work, from the Latin "Cursum Perficio" to "Orinoco Flow." There isn't one bad cut on this album and the Celtic singing and Latin are hypnotic and mysterious.
Watermark is a seminal album in the stellar career of one of folk musics true stars, packed full of great tracks from the hard edges of "Na laetha geal m'oige" to the rich harmony of "Cursum perfico".

 University of Delaware: THOMAS GRAVELL WATERMARK COLLECTION
Gravell's interest in watermarks began with the watermarks from his stamp collection and later expanded to include identifying and reproducing watermarks in paper that was made in the United States and Europe prior to 1830.
Gravell collected images of watermarks on handmade paper made in both the United States and Europe, and his sources date from the 15th through the 19th centuries, although the bulk of the watermarks are from the 18th and early 19th centuries.
Watermarks can help to identify who made a sheet of paper, as well as where and when it was made.

 RIAA Challenges SDMI Attack   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Robust watermarks are designed to survive common transformations like digital-to-audio conversion, compression and decompression, and the addition of small amounts of noise to the file.
As mentioned earlier, there are three audio files per watermark challenge: an original and watermarked version of one clip, and then a watermarked version of a second clip, from which the mark is to be removed.
If the watermark is based on some kind of linear filter, whose properties change slowly enough relative to the size of a frame of samples, then this approach is ideal.

 The Richter Scale - The Digital Watermark
While not visible or audible to human senses, the watermark is robust to common signal and geometric distortions such as digital-to-analog and analog-to-digital conversion, resampling, and requantization, including printing and compression, and rotation, translation, cropping and scaling.
The watermark is composed of a bit pattern distributed throughout the data based on noise theory, and is calculated using discrete cosine transforms (I used to know what that meant).
The watermark apparently causes no visual aural degradation of the image or sound stream, as it is stored in an imperceptible region of the data.

 Creating a watermark effect   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
So what we want to do for the watermark effect is to compress the histogram of the original image into a narrower one which will be at the right of the dynamic range.
For the watermark effect, we want to use the same value that we used in the Stretch Contrast step, so that the lightest color will be in fact white (255), and nothing will get clamped.
The histogram has the same shape as the original one, but it is compressed and pushed to the right exactly so that the rightmost value is white and no values got clamped.

Although digital watermarking is relatively new as a means of protecting intellectual property, the theories and technologies behind it have been around for a while: computer-based steganography (cryptography), spread-spectrum communications, and noise theory.
The advantage of frequency-domain watermarking is that the watermark is spread throughout the whole video or audio clip and hence is resistant to cropping or cutting.
Watermarks can also be embedded in an image's luminance and color bands, or in the contour and texture of an image.
