How to watermark a PDF

  1. Attach the PDF and choose text or image watermarking.
  2. Set the content, position, size, rotation, opacity and page range.
  3. Review the preview and download the watermarked copy.

Common watermark uses

Watermarks can identify a document as Draft, Confidential, Sample or Copy. A company logo can also add consistent branding to reports and handouts.

Use opacity carefully

A watermark should be visible without making the underlying document difficult to read. Test busy and sparse pages because the same opacity can look different across a document.

Watermark PDF questions

Can I use diagonal text?

Yes. Adjust the rotation to create a diagonal watermark across the page.

Does the original PDF change?

No. FlowPDF creates a separate watermarked PDF for download.
