Frequently Asked Questions

Why watermark a document before sharing it?

A visible watermark states the document's status (CONFIDENTIAL, DRAFT, FOR REVIEW ONLY) and discourages casual forwarding. Watermarking each copy with the recipient's name also makes leaked copies traceable to their source.

Can the watermark be removed by the recipient?

A determined person with editing tools can attack any visible watermark, so treat it as a deterrent and labelling mechanism, not a security control. For actual protection, combine it with password protection and share selectively.

Is the document uploaded while watermarking?

No. The watermark is applied inside your browser - your confidential document never reaches a server. Sending a confidential file to a cloud service just to stamp it 'confidential' would be self-defeating; here that does not happen.

Can I customise the text, position, and opacity?

Yes - set your own text, choose diagonal or positioned placement, and adjust size and opacity so the stamp is clear without obscuring content. Apply it to every page in one pass regardless of document length.
