Why Use Our Secure PDF Watermark Tool?

Protecting your intellectual property is essential in the digital age. Whether you are sharing a draft with a client or distributing confidential employee data, adding a visual stamp is the most effective way to prevent unauthorized use. Our tool allows you to **add a watermark to PDF** files instantly, without the privacy risks associated with cloud uploads.

1. 100% Secure & Private (No Uploads)

Most online PDF tools upload your sensitive documents to a remote server for processing. This creates a potential security risk for confidential data. Our **PDF Watermark Adder** is different. It runs entirely in your web browser using advanced HTML5 and JavaScript technology. Your files never leave your computer. This makes it the safest choice for legal documents, contracts, and creative manuscripts.

2. Text or Image: Complete Branding Control

Our tool offers dual functionality to suit your specific needs:

  • Text Watermarks: Perfect for security. Quickly stamp pages with "CONFIDENTIAL," "DRAFT," "COPY," or "URGENT." You can rotate the text across the page and adjust opacity so it is visible but doesn't ruin the reading experience.
  • Logo/Image Watermarks: Perfect for branding. Easily **add a logo to PDF** files to maintain brand consistency. Upload your company logo (PNG works best for transparency) and place it neatly in the corner or center of every page.

3. Flexible Customization Options

We give you full control over how your document looks. You don't have to settle for a default stamp in the middle of the page. You can customize:

  • Transparency (Opacity): Make your watermark subtle or bold.
  • Rotation: Angle your text to span the entire page diagonally.
  • Page Range: Choose to watermark only the first page, specific ranges (e.g., 3-5), or the entire document.
