Frequently Asked Questions

Get instant answers to common questions about our PDF Watermark tool.

Is it safe to upload my documents to add a watermark?

Yes, it is 100% safe. Your privacy is our top priority. The entire watermarking process happens locally in your browser. Your files are never uploaded to our servers, ensuring your data remains completely private.

Can I use my company logo as a watermark?

Absolutely. Select the "Image Watermark" option and you can upload your logo (PNG or JPG format). You can then adjust its position, size (implicitly via library), and opacity just like a text watermark.

Will adding a watermark reduce my PDF's quality?

No, it will not. The watermarking process adds the text or image as an overlay on top of your existing pages. The original quality of your PDF's content, including text and images, is preserved.

Can I apply the watermark to only specific pages?

Yes. Under the "Pages to Apply" section, you can choose to apply the watermark to all pages, only even pages, only odd pages, or you can specify exact page numbers and ranges (e.g., "1, 5, 8-12").

What happens to my file after I'm done?

Since your file is never uploaded, it remains on your computer. The watermarked PDF is generated in your browser, and you download a new copy. We never see or store your files.
