Finding Watermarks Later

With the watermarks feature, I have a question.

Are watermarks stored at a specific location in the VMProtect generated binary? Do I have to use the Watermark Search feature or can I write my own program that will parse for watermarks (say as part of some automated system)?

VMprotect includes many copies of selected watermark into protected file with random positions.

The protected file have not name of watermark - only watermark signatures. In "Watermarks - Search" VMProtect only search signatures (from you watermarks base) in protected file/process and display found watermark names and count.
