How it works

Upload your PDF. Visual page thumbnails will render below the upload zone.
Design your watermark. Enter your text, choose the font family and color, and adjust opacity, size, rotation, or margins.
Verify the look. The live previews show exactly where the text will print. Use low opacity (10-20%) for a subtle background watermark.
Click "Add Watermark." The tool writes the watermark vectors into the page stream and downloads the document immediately.

Common questions

Will the watermarked text overlap my content?

Yes, watermarks are intentionally drawn over the page content. You can adjust the opacity slider (e.g., to 10% or 15%) to make the watermark faint and see-through, keeping your document text fully legible.

Can I remove the watermark later using this tool?

No. Once applied, the watermark text is embedded into the PDF content stream. This makes it secure and difficult for others to remove, which is the purpose of watermarking. Keep a copy of your original file before applying the watermark.

Is my document uploaded to a server to apply the watermark?

No. Everything runs inside your browser. No files are uploaded, making it secure for sensitive documents.
