Add text watermarks to PDF files

HomePDF Tools

What it does

The PDF Watermark tool adds custom text watermarks to every page of your PDF document. Watermarking is essential for protecting intellectual property, marking documents as drafts, confidential, or proprietary. The tool renders your chosen text diagonally across each page with semi-transparent styling that is clearly visible without obscuring the underlying content.

How to use it

  1. Upload your PDF file by dragging it into the upload area or clicking to browse.
  2. Enter your watermark text — for example 'CONFIDENTIAL', 'DRAFT', or your company name.
  3. Adjust the font size to match your document's layout.
  4. Click 'Apply Watermark' to add the text to every page.
  5. Download the watermarked PDF — your original content remains untouched beneath the overlay.
