Why use Watermark PDF?
- The finished file can be shared or archived without changing the original document.
- The tool removes a repetitive manual step while leaving the original available for comparison.
- A separate output file makes review and approval easier before the result is published or sent onward.
- Keeping the source untouched is safer when the result may need to be checked or redone.
What changes?
Apply text/image watermarks. Output quality depends on the source and the operation, so compare a sample before running a large batch.
