How to add a watermark to a PDF

Stamp a word such as CONFIDENTIAL or DRAFT, or your logo, on every page, with the opacity, angle and position you want. The text underneath stays as it was.

  1. Drop the PDF and choose whether the mark is text or an image.

  2. Write the text or pick the image, and adjust size, color, rotation and position.

  3. Preview it on the page and download the PDF with the mark.

Questions about Watermark PDF

Does watermarking a PDF with fileclay upload my file?

No. The mark is stamped on a copy by your browser, and the logo you use stays on your device too.

Can I put the mark on some pages only?

Yes. In Apply to you can leave it on all pages, pick them by clicking them on the page or by range, so a draft mark only goes on the pages that are still drafts.

Can the mark go behind the text?

Yes. In Layer choose Behind content and the mark is written under the text of the page, so it doesn’t cover anything. On top of content is the other option, and below 100% opacity the text shows through.

Is a watermark enough to protect a document?

No. A mark is a warning, not a lock: anyone who can open the PDF can see it, and many editors let you delete it. If what you need is to stop it from being printed or copied, that’s what Protect PDF is for.
