Common mistakes
- Processing confidential contracts or ID scans on a shared or public computer—use a trusted device.
- Assuming local processing means zero risk: malware, extensions, or screen capture can still expose files.
- Expecting pixel-perfect PDF layout after heavy compression—always open the output before sending.
- Uploading the same export to multiple untrusted third-party converters after using a local tool.
FAQ
Is this a legal watermark for contracts?
It adds visible text only—not cryptographic proof of origin. Use proper legal process for binding documents.
Does my PDF upload?
No. Watermarking is client-side; download the stamped file when done.
Can I use an image watermark?
This tool supports text watermarks. For image stamps, edit in a design app first, then merge to PDF.
