About This Tool

Add Watermark to PDF is a free-to-use online PDF watermark tool that requires no installation and no registration — just open and use. It adds text or image watermarks to a PDF, with customizable position, color, font size, opacity and rotation, and can tile the watermark to fill the page. All processing happens locally in your browser, so your files are 100% private and never uploaded to any server. Whether you are adding copyright marks, preventing leaks, or promoting your brand, this tool has you covered — upload and watermark with results rivaling professional PDF editors. (Note: "free" refers to daily free quota, not unlimited; for high-volume or professional needs, consider the membership plan for more quota.)

How to Use

  1. Upload a PDF

    Click the upload area or drag and drop a PDF file into the box; the tool automatically reads the page count

  2. Set up the watermark

    Choose the watermark type (text / image) and set the content, position, color, opacity, rotation and other parameters

  3. Set the page range

    In "Page range", enter something like 1,3-5 to target only specific pages; leave blank for all pages

  4. Start processing

    Click the "Start Process" button and download the watermarked PDF when processing finishes

Use Cases

  • Copyright marking: add text like "Confidential" / "Draft" or a company Logo image watermark
  • Leak prevention: overlay a semi-transparent watermark to trace the file's source
  • Branding: add your company identity to PDFs sent to others

Key Advantages

  1. Text & image support

    Both text watermarks and image watermarks (PNG/JPG/WebP) are supported for all kinds of identification needs

  2. Flexible parameters

    Fine-tune position, color, font size, opacity and rotation to create the ideal watermark effect

  3. Tiling to fill the page

    Turn on tile mode to spread the watermark evenly across the whole page for stronger leak prevention and branding

  4. Privacy & security

    All processing is done locally in your browser; files are never uploaded, keeping your data 100% private

  5. Free & easy

    No installation, no registration — open and use, backed by a daily free quota for everyday needs

Tile mode Full-page leak prevention or branding Horizontal / vertical spacing

FAQ

What is the PDF watermark tool?

The PDF watermark tool is a free online tool for adding text or image watermarks to a PDF. It supports setting position, color, font size, opacity and rotation, and can tile the watermark to fill the whole page.

Will the watermark affect the original content?

No. The watermark is drawn as an overlay layer and never covers or modifies the original text or images.

Are encrypted PDFs supported?

For security reasons, please remove the password from encrypted or password-protected PDFs using our "Unlock PDF" tool before processing.

Does the image watermark support transparent backgrounds?

Yes. Images with an alpha channel such as PNG keep their transparency; combined with the opacity parameter you can achieve a semi-transparent effect.

Is processing secure? Will my files leak?

Files are processed entirely in your local browser and never uploaded to any server — feel free to use it.

Can the watermark position be adjusted precisely?

Five presets are provided — top-left / top-right / center / bottom-left / bottom-right — and you can fine-tune further with the rotation angle and tile mode.

Can I watermark only specific pages?

Yes. Enter something like 1,3-5 in the "Page range" field to watermark only those pages; leave it blank for all pages.

Do I need to register to use it?

No registration is required. Just open the page to start. We provide free daily usage for everyday light needs; for higher processing volume, upgrading to a membership unlocks more quota.

How large or how many pages can I watermark?

The tool supports large PDF files, limited mainly by your device memory and page count. For very large files, consider processing in batches for faster, more stable results.

Is the PDF watermarker free?

This tool provides free usage every day. Light everyday needs can be met at no cost; when you need higher volume or more frequent use, a membership unlocks more quota for your scenarios.

Which image formats are supported?

You can upload PNG, JPG and WebP and other mainstream formats as watermarks; PNG preserves a transparent background.

Can I use it on mobile?

Yes. The tool works on phones, tablets and computers — as long as you have a browser, you can watermark your PDF documents anytime, anywhere.
