Watermark

A visible stamp — "CONFIDENTIAL," "DRAFT," a copyright line — communicates a document’s status at a glance before anyone reads a word of it. Watermark places that stamp with a live preview, so you see exactly how strong or subtle it looks before saving.

Common ways people use this

Frequently asked questions

Can I control how see-through the watermark is?

Yes, the opacity slider runs from barely visible to fully solid.

Can I watermark only certain pages?

Yes, enter a page range, or leave it blank to stamp every page.

Can I tile the watermark across the whole page?

Yes — "Tiled" placement repeats the text in a pattern instead of a single stamp.

Does the watermark cover up my content?

You control opacity, size and rotation, so it can stay subtle or be made prominent.
