PDF Protect — Add a PDF Watermark
Watermark a PDF without uploading it. Customize the text and placement, preview the result and download a separate copy.
About PDF ProtectFeatures & how to use
Add text watermarks to PDF files privately in your browser. Customize font, color, opacity, rotation and page ranges, preview and download without uploads.
What it can do
- Process one unencrypted PDF at a time, up to 50 MiB and 500 pages, entirely in your browser.
- Choose Helvetica, Times Roman or Courier, with up to 140 characters of Latin text, color and opacity controls.
- Rotate, offset or repeat the watermark; select all pages or specific ranges such as 1-3, 5.
- Preview individual pages and download the same generated PDF. Editing settings clears the old output.
- Watermarks are not encryption, redaction or sanitization. Existing metadata, attachments and active content may remain; edits can invalidate digital signatures.
- Adapted from Torito's open-source PDF Protect project under the MIT license.
