Watermark a PDF

Add a "CONFIDENTIAL" stamp, your own text and page numbers to every page of a PDF. Everything happens in your browser — your document is never uploaded.

Watermarking well

Why add a watermark to a PDF?

A watermark is semi-transparent text or a logo laid over every page. It mostly serves to:

  • Mark a document's status: « DRAFT », « CONFIDENTIAL », « COPY », « SPECIMEN ».
  • Assert ownership: your name, your company's name or your logo on a quote, a portfolio or a report.
  • Discourage forwarding: a visibly marked document gets reshared less easily.
  • Track a version before sending it to a client or a reviewer.

Our tips for an effective watermark

  • Diagonal and semi-transparent: readable, without getting in the way of the document itself.
  • Short text reads better than a long sentence.
  • Apply it to every page, so none of them travels unmarked.
  • Everything happens in your browser: your sensitive documents are never uploaded.
