Overview & Quick Answer

What is Add Watermark?

Add custom text watermarks to your PDF documents online for free. Customize font size, opacity, and angle to protect confidential files securely.

Watermarking is standard practice for signaling document status, preventing unauthorized distribution, and asserting brand copyright. iLuvePDF lets you customize text strings, font colors, alpha transparency, and diagonal 45-degree rotation angles, or overlay high-resolution PNG logos. All stamping occurs directly on the PDF canvas in client-side memory.

1
Upload Document: Select or drag and drop the PDF you want to watermark.
2
Customize Watermark: Enter your custom text (like 'CONFIDENTIAL' or 'DRAFT'), and tweak the opacity, size, and color.
3
Apply and Save: Click 'Add Watermark' to process the file, then download the watermarked PDF.
