About this tool
Mark a document as Confidential or Draft, or add your logo. Place the watermark once or repeat it across every page, and set how faint it should be so the content stays readable.
Common questions
Can I use my logo?
Yes. Choose Image as the watermark type and upload a PNG or JPG. A PNG with a transparent background looks best.
Can the watermark go behind the content?
Yes. Turn on Place behind page content, so text stays easy to read.
Is it free to use?
Yes. You can use it without an account a few times a day, and a free account raises the daily limit. Nothing is added to your file unless you ask for it.
What happens to my files?
Your files are only used to run the tool you chose, and they're deleted automatically after about 24 hours.
Do I need to install anything?
No. It all works in your browser, on any computer or phone.
