Watermarking a PDF: FAQ

Is the watermark applied to every page?

Yes. One watermark is stamped onto every page of the document in a single pass.

Can the watermark be removed again?

It is drawn into the page content, so it is not a layer a reader can switch off. It is a visible marking, not a security measure.

Can I use an image or a logo as the watermark?

This tool stamps text. To place a logo, use the add-image tool, set its opacity and send it behind the page content.

Will the watermark hide the text underneath?

Not at a low opacity. Around 20 percent keeps the document readable while the marking stays unmistakable.

Can I use Chinese text in the watermark?

Yes. The required glyphs are embedded in the exported PDF, so the watermark renders in other readers too.
