Answer 2

It's very easy. Here is a tutorial I reference when I need to add a watermark (I'll also list the link to the tutorial below):
1. Open an image.
2. Select the type tool and type the copyright symbol or any other text you want to use for a watermark.
3. While you're still in the type tool dialog, click the color swatch, and set the color to 50% gray. (Use HSB values 0-0-50 or RGB values 128-128-128; both will produce the same result).
4. Click OK to exit the type tool.
5. Resize and position your text as desired.
6. Photoshop 5.5: Right click (Mac users control-click) on the type layer in the layer palette and choose Effects.
7. Photoshop 6 and 7: Double click on a blank area of the type layer in the layer palette (not the thumbnail or the layer name) to bring up the layer styles dialog.
8. Apply the Bevel and Emboss effect and adjust the setting until it's to your liking.
9. In the layers palette, change the blend mode for the type layer to Hard Light.

Tips:

1. If you'd like the watermark a little more visible, try a color value of 60% gray for the type (HSB value 0-0-60).
2. Resize the type at any time by pressing Ctrl-T (Windows) or Command-T (Mac). Hold the shift key and drag a corner handle. When you apply the transformation, the type will resize with no loss in quality.
3. You are not restricted to using only text for this effect. Try importing a logo or symbol to use as a watermark.
4. The Windows keyboard shortcut for the copyright (©) symbol is Alt+0169 (use the numeric keypad to type the numbers). The Mac shortcut is Option-G.
5. If you use the same watermark often, save it to a file that can be dropped into an image any time you need it. Remember, it's always editable!

Answer 3

You can type any letter or copy paste any emblom or seal on the picture through photoshop before printing.
Open the picture for printing
Open the picture of the emblom or type the letters you want to put over the photo.
Take the layers chart or press F7 and reduce the OPACITY of the emblem or letter as much as you need.
Copy it into tiff or jpeg with out a layer and give it for printing.
