Result
Place a visible label across every page
Choose a PDF, enter text such as DRAFT, SAMPLE, or CONFIDENTIAL, then set opacity and angle. Select Watermark PDF. The text is centered on every page with a size adapted to page width. Download and inspect both light and dark pages to ensure the mark remains readable without hiding essential content.
What a watermark communicates
A watermark can signal status, ownership, intended audience, or a review stage. It is a visual notice, not access control. Someone with editing software may remove or cover it, and the label does not encrypt the file. Use it to reduce casual confusion, not as proof that a document is authentic or protected.
Worked example
Before circulating a proposal, enter DRAFT — NOT FINAL, use 0.20 opacity, and keep the -35-degree angle. The diagonal gray label crosses each page while normal text remains visible. If a dark photograph makes the mark disappear, increase opacity cautiously and recheck text-heavy pages for obstruction.
Choosing opacity and angle
Lower opacity is subtle but can vanish against similar tones. Higher opacity is unmistakable but may interfere with reading. Diagonal text spans more of a typical portrait page and is harder to confuse with body content. Horizontal text works better for a conventional centered stamp.
Local document handling
The file stays on your device. Standard bold Helvetica text is embedded and drawn over existing page content in browser memory. No remote font, upload service, or account is involved. The downloaded result is separate from the source.
Limitations and assumptions
One text style is applied to all pages. There is no image-logo watermark, tiled pattern, per-page selection, custom font, color control, or behind-content mode. Very long wording is reduced to fit but may still be less effective than a short label. Page modifications generally invalidate existing digital signatures. A watermark does not redact private text or prevent copying.
