Ack, I will try to come up with some ideas how to solve that in a way that makes most sense. > 2. It would be nice if we could import several styles at one. (Is it > possible?)

There had been some work to improve styles and also to create a server side gallery to collect, browse and download them. Hierarchical styles had been mentioned in that context, too. No idea what happened to that work though. > 4.

Without having tried it: create a style that only has "watermark" in the "off" state and try to apply that during export. It _should_ disable that module. > Best, FC Tobias
