Add a Watermark to a PDF Document
Type any text - DRAFT, CONFIDENTIAL, SAMPLE, DO NOT COPY, your company name - and it appears across your pages. Customize font, size, color, opacity, and rotation angle. Position the watermark anywhere or use the classic diagonal placement. Preview on your actual pages before applying.
Add Your Logo or Image as a Watermark
Upload a PNG, JPG, or SVG image to use as your watermark. Company logos, approval stamps, signatures, or any custom graphic. Control size, position, and opacity so the image is visible without obscuring the document text underneath.
Add Confidential or Draft Stamp to PDF
Mark sensitive documents as CONFIDENTIAL, internal drafts as DRAFT, or proofs as SAMPLE. The watermark appears on every page (or selected pages) at the opacity you set. Recipients immediately see the document status without reading the content first.
Make the Watermark Permanent
The watermark is embedded in the PDF page content. For maximum protection, flatten the PDF after watermarking so it cannot be removed by editing. Add password protection to prevent recipients from modifying the file entirely.
