Protect Your Intellectual Property

Sharing documents online can be risky. Without protection, your work can be copied, altered, or claimed by others. The Utilix Watermark tool is the easiest way to claim ownership of your PDF files. By adding a stamp like "Confidential," "Draft," "Sample," or your own Company Logo, you ensure that anyone viewing the file knows its source and status.

Our tool offers professional-grade customization. Unlike basic tools that just slap text in the center, Utilix lets you control the transparency and rotation. This is crucial for creating subtle background watermarks that discourage copying without ruining the reading experience. Best of all, the process is 100% free and private—your watermarked files are yours alone.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best way to watermark a PDF?

The best watermark is one that is visible but not obstructive. We recommend using a 50% transparency level and placing the watermark diagonally across the page. This prevents people from easily cropping it out.

Can I use an image as a watermark?

Yes! You can upload a PNG or JPG file (like a company logo or signature) and stamp it onto your PDF pages. We recommend using a PNG with a transparent background for the best results.

Does this work on all pages?

By default, the tool applies your watermark to all pages in the document, ensuring the entire file is protected.

Can I watermark a PDF on my phone?

Yes. Utilix is fully mobile-responsive. You can upload a PDF from your mobile storage, add a text stamp, and download the protected file directly to your phone.
