Frequently asked questions
Can I still read and select the text under the watermark?
Yes. The watermark is see-through, and the original text stays selectable and searchable.
Can someone remove the watermark?
It is drawn on top of every page, so ordinary PDF readers cannot hide it, but a PDF editor can delete it. Treat it as a clear label, not as protection.
Can I watermark only some pages?
Yes. Enter the pages, for example 1-3, 5. Leave the field empty to mark every page.
Is my PDF uploaded?
No. The watermark is added in your browser, so the file never leaves your device.
