Frequently Asked Questions

Can I customize the watermark text and appearance?
Yes. You can set the text content, font size, color, opacity, rotation angle, and position on the page to get exactly the look you want.
Is the watermark applied to every page?
By default, the watermark is applied to all pages. The tool overlays your text on each page of the PDF.
