Frequently Asked Questions

How do I add a watermark to a PDF for free?

Add the PDF above, type the watermark text or choose a logo, then click Add watermark & download.

Can I use my logo as a watermark?

Yes. Choose Image and pick a PNG or JPG. A PNG with a transparent background looks best.

Can the watermark be removed?

It is drawn into the pages, so it cannot simply be switched off, but someone with PDF editing software could cover it. For private files, also use Protect PDF.
