FAQ

Can the watermark be removed later?

It is drawn onto each page as text, so it cannot be toggled off like a comment. Keep your original file if you may need a clean copy.

Tiled or single — which should I use?

Tiled repeats the text diagonally across the page and is harder to crop out; single places one mark at a chosen position and stays out of the way of the content.
