How to Add Watermark to PDF

Tool location: /pdf/watermark

Adding watermarks to PDFs helps identify document status, protect intellectual property, or brand your documents. You can add text watermarks like CONFIDENTIAL, DRAFT, or your company name. Customize the appearance including size, color, opacity, and position.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Upload Your PDF File

Click "Select PDF File" or drag and drop your PDF into the upload area. A preview of the first page will be shown.

Step 2: Enter Watermark Text

Type the text you want to appear as a watermark. Common examples include:

CONFIDENTIAL - for sensitive documents
DRAFT - for documents in progress
COPY - for duplicate documents
Your company name or logo text
Date or version information

Step 3: Customize Appearance

Adjust the watermark settings to achieve your desired look:

Font Size: Make the text larger or smaller
Color: Choose any color for the watermark text
Opacity: Set transparency (lower = more see-through)
Rotation: Angle the text (diagonal is common)
Position: Center, corners, or custom placement

Step 4: Select Pages

Choose which pages should receive the watermark:

All pages: Apply to every page in the document
Specific pages: Enter page numbers or ranges
First page only: Watermark just the cover page

Step 5: Preview and Apply

Review the watermark preview to ensure it looks correct, then click "Apply Watermark" to add it to your document.

Step 6: Download Watermarked PDF

Click "Download" to save your watermarked PDF file.

Pro Tips

For professional documents, use low opacity (20-40%) so the watermark does not interfere with reading.
Diagonal watermarks (30-45 degrees) are harder to remove and more noticeable.
Gray or light colors work well for most documents as they are visible but not distracting.
Consider different watermarks for different purposes: DRAFT for reviews, FINAL for completed documents.
Test the watermark visibility by printing a page before adding it to the entire document.

Important Notes

Text watermarks can be removed by someone with PDF editing software. They are a deterrent, not a security measure.

Very large or dark watermarks may make the document difficult to read.

Watermarks appear above the content. On very dark pages, light-colored watermarks may not be visible.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can watermarks be removed?

A: Text watermarks can potentially be removed with PDF editing software. They serve as a visual deterrent and identification marker, not as security. For actual security, consider PDF encryption.

Q: What opacity should I use?

A: For most purposes, 25-40% opacity works well. This makes the watermark visible while keeping the document readable. Use higher opacity (60-80%) if you want the watermark to be very prominent.

Q: Can I add an image watermark?

A: Currently, only text watermarks are supported. For image-based watermarks or logos, you would need to add them using different PDF editing software.

Q: Will the watermark appear when printing?

A: Yes, watermarks are permanently added to the PDF and will appear in prints. Test print a single page first to check appearance.

Q: Can I add different watermarks to different pages?

A: The tool applies the same watermark to all selected pages. For different watermarks on different pages, process the PDF multiple times selecting different pages each time.

Q: Does adding a watermark increase file size?

A: Text watermarks add minimal file size (usually less than 1KB per page). The impact on total file size is negligible.
