AIP watermarks not applying when document is viewed/printed from excel online stored in OD4B
Hello,
We have a document with watermarking applied through AIP. If I view this document in the desktop version of Excel and hit print the watermark applies perfectly. If I view it in Excel Online and hit print it does not show the watermark.
Please tell me that this feature works with your online tools and that this must be some sort of anomaly???
- here is the (short) explanation to this limitation:

- Pablo R. OrtizSteel ContributorHow are you applying the watermark? Manual or auto label?

Manual
- Pablo R. OrtizSteel ContributorOk, I was able to reproduce the issue, but I think it's not related to AIP. I think it's a limitation of Excel online and watermarks (if you select "Edit in Excel" you should be able to see your watermark again).
You could configure OD4B to open in desktop app by default, by giong to site settings -> Libraries and Lists -> Documents -> Configuration -> Advanced configuration -> Default behavior for opening docs
