Frequently Asked Questions
How do I put a watermark on a PDF?
Upload a PDF, enter the watermark text, check the preview, and download. By default, PDFMK repeats a light mark behind the content on every page.
Can I remove the watermark later?
No, once a watermark is added, it becomes part of the PDF. Keep your original file if you need a non-watermarked version.
Will my files be stored?
The visual preview is generated locally in your browser. When you create the watermarked PDF, the file is uploaded over HTTPS and processed temporarily for the request. There is no account document history or permanent result link. See Security & File Handling.
Can I watermark specific pages only?
Yes. Choose Selected pages in the main setup, then enter individual pages or ranges such as 1, 3, 5-8.
What processing limits apply?
Upload one PDF up to 100 MB and 300 pages. Watermark text is limited to 200 characters.
For readable opacity, angle, and color choices, use the watermark design guide.
