Add Watermark to PDF

Stamp a text watermark across every page of a PDF. Choose colour, opacity, size and position. Works entirely in your browser.

What is the Add Watermark to PDF?

The Add Watermark to PDF tool stamps custom text — "CONFIDENTIAL", "DRAFT", your company name — across every page of a document. Control the text, position, font size, colour and opacity, and check the result in the live preview before downloading.

The watermark is added as a vector layer, so it stays sharp at any zoom or print size. Stamping runs locally in your browser.
