Add a Watermark to a PDF

A watermark tells anyone who opens your document what it is and where it came from. Drafts get marked as drafts, internal reports get marked as confidential, and shared work carries your name across every page. This tool stamps text or an image across your PDF and gives you back a watermarked copy, leaving the original file on your computer untouched.

Frequently asked questions

Can the watermark be removed later?

Once applied it becomes part of the page, so keep your original file if you may need a clean copy.

Can I watermark only some pages?

The mark is usually applied across the document, which is what most drafts and confidential reports need.

Will the watermark hide my text?

No. It is designed to sit over the page while keeping the content underneath readable.

Is this tool free?

Yes. There is no charge and no account is needed.
