How to apply watermark using MIP SDK (Microsoft Information protection)

Question

I am trying to implement Content Marking using MIP SDK version 1.5

As per information from below URL, it is possible to implement content marking. I have tried but couldn't. I want to implement applying content marking(watermark) in word/pdf document while applying label. I have set label and encryption in protection.office.com.

Any help would be great.

MIP SDK doesn't support direct content marking. When you apply a label via the SDK that applies content marking, instead of marking the document, it applies a property called ContentBits. This property informs Office or the AIP Client that they should apply the content marking when the document is opened.

We don't have plans at the moment to support direct content marking.
