Watermark — frequently asked questions
- How do I watermark a PDF?
- Upload the file, enter your text, adjust the appearance and apply. The text is drawn on every selected page.
- Can the watermark be removed?
- It is drawn into the page content, so it is not a simple toggle — but a watermark is a deterrent, not a security control. Use Protect PDF if you need access control.
- Can I use an image as a watermark?
- Not here. Use Add Image in the editor to place a logo on the page.
- Will it cover my text?
- Lower the opacity or reduce the font size so the underlying content remains legible.
- Can I watermark only some pages?
- Yes, choose the page range before applying.
