About this tool

Watermark a PDF without uploading it

Add a text watermark — CONFIDENTIAL, DRAFT, your name, a date, anything — across every page of a PDF. Control the size, opacity, colour and angle, or tile it across the whole page. It’s perfect for marking drafts, protecting documents you’re sharing, or branding handouts. The whole thing runs in your browser: your PDF is never uploaded to a server.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about the Watermark PDF.

Does my PDF get uploaded?

No. The watermark is applied locally in your browser with an in-browser PDF library. Your file never leaves your device.

Can I watermark every page at once?

Yes — the watermark is stamped on every page of the document in one go. You can choose a single centred mark or tile it repeatedly across each page.

Can I change the colour, size and angle?

Yes. You control the text, font size, opacity, colour (from preset swatches) and rotation angle, so the watermark can be subtle or bold, horizontal or diagonal.

Can a watermark be removed later?

The text is drawn into the PDF’s page content, so it’s not a simple toggle to remove — but determined users with PDF editors can. Treat it as a clear visual marker, not hard security. To restrict opening or editing, use our Protect PDF (password) tool.

Can I add an image or logo watermark?

This tool does text watermarks. To place a logo or signature image onto a PDF, use the Sign PDF tool, which stamps an image onto the page.
