Questions
Can the watermark be removed?
It is drawn into the page content, so it can’t be switched off like a comment. Someone with PDF editing software could still delete it, as with any watermark. For documents that must not be altered, add a password with Protect PDF after watermarking.
What does “Behind the content” do?
The watermark is placed under the page’s text and pictures, so it never covers them. On scanned pages, which are one big picture, a watermark behind the content is hidden: choose “In front” for those.
How do I use my letterhead?
Choose “PDF page”, pick a PDF of your letterhead (a one-page PDF with the logo and footer), set its size to 100% and put it behind the content. Page 1 of the letterhead goes on every page, or choose page by page to match a multi-page design.
Which languages can the text use?
Latin, Cyrillic, Greek, Vietnamese, Tamil and Chinese. The tool tells you if a character can’t be written; for Japanese, Korean or other Indian scripts, turn your text into an image first and use the image option.
Are my PDFs uploaded anywhere?
No. Your PDFs are opened and processed on your device, and the results are saved straight back to it. Nothing is uploaded. How to check.
Is it free? Do I need an account?
It is free to use and there is nothing to sign up for. There are no watermarks and no daily limits.
