Watermark a PDF in your browser

Marking a document as CONFIDENTIAL, DRAFT, or with your name keeps it from being passed off as something official. This free tool stamps a text watermark across every page of your PDF — pick the text, colour, size and opacity, and whether it sits as a single diagonal line or repeats across the whole page. It all happens in your browser, so your document is never uploaded.

Who uses this tool

People sharing a draft or sample that shouldn't be reused, professionals marking documents confidential, and anyone protecting a scanned ID by stamping the purpose across it.

How to add a watermark

  1. Choose your PDF.
  2. Type the watermark text and set the colour, size, opacity and style.
  3. Click Add watermark and download — it's applied to every page.
