Stamp “Confidential”, “Draft”, your name or your logo across PDF pages. Text or a picture, any angle, position or a tiled pattern, on every page or the pages you choose — privately in your browser.
Use the focused tool, then carry originals and current settings into the editor.
Each mode retains its own session until reload. Batch keeps its settings and results when you switch modes. Nothing is saved automatically.
Some PDF content cannot be separated into editable objects. Those pages keep their original appearance as a page background; you can add content over them.

Page through the result to check readability. Move the mark or lower its opacity if it crosses a detail you need to read.
Text watermarks are written as real text in Helvetica Bold, so they stay crisp at any zoom and print cleanly. The standard PDF fonts cover Latin letters, digits and common symbols; text with other characters — Turkish İ, ğ and ş, Cyrillic, Greek, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic or emoji — is drawn with your browser's own fonts at high resolution and embedded once as a transparent picture, so it shows exactly as you typed it instead of as question marks. The row says when this happened.
PNG logos keep their transparency and JPGs are embedded unchanged; other formats are decoded on your device first. The picture is stored once in the file however many pages carry it. Choose Size as a share of the page width: Small is a discreet corner mark; Large spans half the page.
The nine positions and the tile pattern are placed in the reader's view: a scanned page that is stored sideways and rotated by its viewer still gets the mark where you expect. Diagonal is the classic across-the-page stamp; Horizontal suits a header or footer line. Watermark whole documents, odd or even pages, or a list such as 1-3, 7. The mark is drawn on top of the page content with the opacity you set, so the text underneath remains readable at 30 % and is deliberately obscured at 100 %.
1-3, 7
Pages are stamped in place, not copied into a new document, so bookmarks, internal links, annotations, editable form fields and document metadata are all kept. Password-protected PDFs ask for their password on their card, and restricted ones open straight away; either way the watermarked copy is saved without encryption. XFA forms, digitally signed documents and PDFs with empty signature fields are refused. Rewriting a signed document would invalidate its signature; refusing empty signature fields is an additional quick-tool limit. This tool does not remove existing watermarks.
No. Reading, previewing and stamping happen in your browser. Files, the watermark text and any picture you choose are not sent to Toolkitta. Keep this tab open until you download the result; reloading clears the session. Website hosting and performance measurement are described in our Privacy notice.
No. A watermark identifies a document or its state — Confidential, Draft, Sample, your name — and discourages casual reuse, but anyone with a PDF editor can remove it. If the content must stay private, add a password with Protect PDF; if you need to prove authorship, keep your original. Toolkitta's copy never calls a watermark protection because it is not.
Yes. Switch Watermark to Image and choose a PNG, JPG, WebP, HEIC, SVG or any other format the site opens. A PNG with a transparent background gives the cleanest result. Size is a share of the page width, opacity and angle work as for text, and the picture can be placed in any of the nine positions or tiled.
Yes. Under Pages choose Odd or Even, or Custom and type page numbers such as 1-3, 7. The setting applies to every file in the queue; a file that has none of the listed pages is reported rather than copied unchanged.
Yes. Latin letters, digits and common symbols are written as real text. Characters outside the standard PDF fonts — Turkish İ, ğ, ş, Cyrillic, Greek, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, emoji — are drawn with your browser's fonts and embedded as a sharp transparent picture, so they look exactly as typed. The row notes when this was done.
Not in this tool: the mark is drawn on top of the page, which is the only way to add to a PDF without rewriting every page's content. Use a low opacity such as 20–30 % and the text underneath stays fully readable, which is how most Confidential and Draft stamps are made.
Yes, up to 20 files, 50 MB each and 200 MB combined, 300 pages per file. The same watermark and settings apply to every file in the run. Download the results one by one or as a ZIP, or send them all to another PDF tool.
Password-protected PDFs ask for their password on their card and are saved without it. XFA forms, digitally signed documents and PDFs with empty signature fields are refused with an explanation. Everything else is kept: pages are stamped in place, so text, pictures, links, bookmarks, annotations, editable form fields and metadata remain. This is not a watermark-removal, redaction or metadata-removal tool.
