Privacy and file handling

Your PDF is processed by JavaScript in your browser. The selected document bytes are not intentionally uploaded to a conversion server by this tool.

Local PDF processing

PDF.js renders previews and pdf-lib draws the watermark directly in your browser.

No conversion upload required

The PDF bytes are not intentionally sent to a conversion server by this tool. CDN libraries and site services use their own network requests.

Before you process your PDF

The downloaded result is a new file. Review it before sharing or archiving it.

Text font support

The lightweight built-in font is intended for Latin text, numbers and common punctuation.

Document integrity

Digital signatures and some interactive features may not survive rewriting. Keep your original PDF.
