Add Watermark to PDF
Add watermark to PDF files and every page is marked as a draft, confidential or yours. Text or a logo goes on all pages in one pass.
How to add watermark to PDF
Drop your PDF into the box.
Type the watermark text or pick a logo image.
Set centered or tiled, then adjust rotation, opacity, size and color.
Run it and download the watermarked PDF.
Put a text or logo watermark on every page
A single centered stamp works for "DRAFT" or "CONFIDENTIAL". Tiled repeats the mark across the whole page, which is harder to crop out of a screenshot.
Lower the opacity to keep the document readable under the mark. Rotation sets the classic diagonal look. Pick a color that stands out from the page without hiding the text.
Make the watermark harder to remove
The watermark is written into the page content, not added as a loose comment. To discourage edits, flatten the PDF and then password protect it with editing restricted. See how to password protect a PDF for the settings. Keep an unmarked original for your own records.

Can I use my logo as a watermark?
Yes. Choose an image watermark and set its opacity and rotation.
Does the watermark go on every page?
Yes. It is applied to all pages of the file.
