Information
How to add a watermark
Choose all your files to which you want to add a watermark. Configure the watermark options and start the process. A few seconds later you can download your new PDF files which contain the watermark.
Watermarks as copy protection
Deter document copying by adding a watermark to your PDF files. Using a watermark with protected documents acts as copying deterrent and can identify the source of a printed file.
Easy usage
PDF24 makes it as easy as possible for you to add a watermark to your PDF files. You don't need to install and worry about any software, you just have to choose your files and start the process.
Supports your system
You do not need any special system to add a watermark to PDF files. This app runs in your browser and therefore functions under all operating systems.
No installation required
You don't need to download or install any software. The watermark is added on our servers in the cloud and therefore will not consume resources from your computer.
Security is important to us
This watermark tool does not store your files on our server longer than necessary. Your files and results will be deleted from our server after a short period of time.
Developed by Stefan Ziegler What others are saying
I like to add the text "Confidential" to the pages of confidential documents before I send them to the recipients. The recipients can then clearly see the information to treat the file confidential. I can do this quickly and easily with this tool.
I often send photos bundled in a PDF as a photo book. The recipient shall see the source of the photos. Therefore I add my website address to all the photos in the PDF file. I can do this very quickly with this tool.
