Common questions
- Which pages receive the watermark?
- A watermark appears only on the page where you place it. Select each additional page and click to add its watermark. There is no apply-to-all action; check every page you want to label before exporting.
- Can I use my logo as a watermark?
- This tool adds text watermarks only. You can choose the wording, position and text size. Image or logo watermarks are not available.
- Does a watermark protect the PDF from copying?
- A watermark is a visible label. It does not encrypt the file, limit access or prevent copying. It also does not remove information beneath the watermark.
