Add a watermark to a PDF
Stamp text or a logo across your pages, without uploading the file.
A watermark marks a document as yours, or as a draft, by laying text or a logo over every page. This tool applies the watermark in your browser, so the document is never uploaded to stamp it.

You often watermark exactly the documents you do not want floating around: drafts, proofs, confidential files. Applying it locally means the unmarked file is never uploaded.
