About Add Watermark

Add a watermark to a PDF — your own text or your own image — across every page or only the pages you choose. Rotation, opacity and position are yours to set, so a DRAFT stamp reads clearly without making the document unusable.

Marking proofs, drafts and shared previews so nobody files an unfinished document as final.

How to use Add Watermark in 3 steps

  1. Drop the PDF you want to mark.
  2. Type the watermark text, or drop a logo image, then set size, angle, opacity and placement.
  3. Apply the watermark and download the stamped PDF.

What you get with Add Watermark

  • Text or image watermarks, or both on different layers
  • Per-page control: mark only the pages that need it
  • Opacity and rotation are adjustable so the mark never hides the content
  • Runs in your browser — the file is never uploaded
  • Free to use, with no signup and no account
  • Works on desktop and mobile, no install

Add Watermark: questions

Can the recipient remove the watermark?
A watermark added here is drawn onto the page content, so removing it means editing the PDF properly. If you need something that cannot be lifted at all, flatten the file afterwards.
Will a PNG logo with transparency work?
Yes — transparent PNGs composite cleanly over the page. JPG logos carry a white box, which will cover part of the page behind it.
Does ScanMaster add its own watermark?
Never. The only mark on your output is the one you asked for.
