Add Watermark FAQ

How do I add a watermark to a PDF for free?

Add your PDF above, type your watermark text, adjust the opacity, size, color, and angle, then click Add watermark. Your file downloads instantly. It is free with no signup, and Craftora never adds its own watermark on top.

How is Craftora different from iLovePDF or Smallpdf?

iLovePDF and Smallpdf upload your PDF to their servers to watermark it. Craftora applies the watermark directly in your browser, so your document never leaves your device, with no daily limits.

Can I make the watermark faint or bold?

Yes. Use the opacity slider to make it a faint background stamp or a bold overlay, and the size slider to control how large the text is.

Can I tile the watermark across the whole page?

Yes. Turn on Tile across page to repeat the watermark in a grid over every page, which is harder to crop out. Leave it off for a single centered stamp.

Do my files get uploaded anywhere?

No. The watermark is applied entirely in your browser on your own device. Your PDF is never sent to any server.

Will the watermark appear on every page?

Yes. The watermark is applied to all pages of the PDF, so the whole document is marked.
