About Add watermark
A watermark is text laid over each page to mark a document as a draft, confidential or a copy. Adding one makes it clear how a file should be treated when it is shared.
Type your stamp text, pick a colour, the angle and how visible it should be, and the tool applies it to the pages. A lower visibility keeps the text beneath readable.
Tips
- A visibility of 20-40% keeps the page readable while the stamp stays visible.
- A 45° angle across the page is the traditional look; choose Straight for a header-style mark.
- A watermark is a visual mark and is not meant as a security measure.
Frequently asked questions
Can I change the colour?
Yes. Use the colour picker to choose any colour for the stamp text.
Can the watermark be removed?
It is added to the page, but it is a visual mark and not a form of protection. Use Protect PDF if you need a password.
