Add a watermark to a PDF
Stamp text or an image across every page of a PDF to mark it as draft, confidential or branded.
Watermark PDF overlays a semi-transparent text or image watermark on every page. It doesn't touch the underlying content — the original text stays selectable, only the watermark sits on top.
Common uses: marking a document 'DRAFT' before circulating, adding a company logo, or a 'CONFIDENTIAL' banner.

Frequently asked questions
Can the watermark be removed later?▾
Not by a normal viewer. A determined user with a PDF editor could remove it, so a watermark is a deterrent, not tamper-proof security.
Can I put a different watermark on each page?▾
This tool applies the same watermark to every page. For different per-page stamps, split the PDF first, watermark each, then merge.
Does watermarking make text un-selectable?▾
No — the underlying text remains selectable and searchable. The watermark is a separate layer on top.
What image format works best for image watermarks?▾
A PNG with a transparent background gives the cleanest result.
