Add Custom Text Watermark to PDF

Q: Does watermarking affect the underlying text and graphics?

No. The watermark is stamped as an overlay layer, leaving your original text, vector lines, and embedded images completely unharmed.

Q: Can watermarks be added to specific pages only?

You can choose to stamp every page across the entire document or specify targeted page ranges for copyright and confidentiality notices.

Q: Can someone easily erase the watermark from the PDF?

The watermark is baked into the document's content streams, preventing casual removal in standard PDF reader applications.

Protect your intellectual property by applying customizable text watermarks across every page of your PDF documents. Customize watermark text, opacity, font size, rotation angle, and placement directly in your browser without uploading confidential files to the cloud. Stamp copyright notices and confidential tags securely.
