Protect Your Documents with Custom Watermarks

Sharing drafts, financial records, or copyrighted material is risky. Stamp ownership and document status across every page with custom text.

How it works

1

Upload PDF

Select the document you wish to protect.

2

Customize

Type your custom text (e.g. 'CONFIDENTIAL'). Choose the text color and adjust opacity so it doesn't block the document.

3

Stamp & Download

Click Apply. The watermark will be stamped diagonally across every page instantly.

Why use this tool?

Instant Application

Watermarking a 500-page document online can freeze your browser. PDFUp stamps every page instantly with optimized client-side libraries.

100% Private Processing

If a document is sensitive enough to require a 'CONFIDENTIAL' watermark, it shouldn't be uploaded. Our offline architecture ensures your files never touch our servers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the watermark removable?

The watermark is permanently flattened into the PDF page's content stream, making it very difficult for average users to remove.

Can I use an image as a watermark?

Currently, our tool only supports text-based watermarks.

Are my files uploaded?

No. The watermarking happens on your device in your web browser. We never see your files.

Add Custom Watermarks to PDFs Securely

A confidential business plan, a novel draft, proprietary designs: those need a watermark on every page. Using an online watermarking tool means sending the unwatermarked original to a third party first, which defeats the whole purpose.

This tool runs on your machine. Type your text, set the color, size, and transparency, and apply it to every page without the document leaving your computer.

It's fast too. A 500-page file gets stamped in seconds, no upload or download involved.
