I was shocked when I found that this functionality (e.g. not having the revision available as a field in a word document stored in Upchain). 
I can understand that implementing this in e.g. word may be complicated, but adding it as watermarks to files should be straight forward given one can add annotations etc.. 
What it the purpose of this forum if there is no response from Autodesk on the most voted feature in the forum over several months?

I understand that the forum is not meant for criticising your response, but yet, my point was merely that there was no sign of it being reviewed by Autodesk, despite it being the most voted suggestion.

Not every idea is going to be reviewed immediately but they are being seen when they are posted.

Watermarking documents is a basic function I would expect Upchain to have. 

Dear @christopher.grinde@JayDesai005, and @s.baronnet,

 

We are always actively reviewing and trying to understand what is the best value we can provide to our customers in the next period. Watermarking viewable is an important feature that is a high priority on our radar and we will try to include you all in the future evolution of that feature.

 

Best regards!

In the case of a drawing, I imagine we could watermark it in CAD, by having an attribute Write to the file (assuming drawing template is set up to display the attribute). Then when the drawing PDF is created, there would be a watermark on both.
