Frequently asked questions
- Can I use an image or logo as the watermark?
- Yes. Switch to image mode and pick a logo or stamp from your device, or stay in text mode and type your own wording.
- Can I control how faint the watermark looks?
- Yes. Opacity and size are adjustable, so the stamp can sit lightly behind the text or stand out clearly, and a live preview shows the result before you apply it.
- Where can the watermark be placed?
- Choose a position preset — including a diagonal across the middle of the page, the classic look for draft and confidential stamps — and the same placement is used on every stamped page.
- Can I limit the watermark to some pages?
- Yes. Set a page range so only the pages you choose receive the stamp.
- Can this remove an existing watermark?
- No. This tool adds a watermark. Removing one that is already baked into a page is not something it can do.
- Watermark vs Add Text — what’s the difference?
- Watermark is built for repeating stamps across pages. Add Text is for placing custom text in specific spots.
- Do I need an account?
- No. Watermarking is free without registration.
