FAQ

Does my PDF get uploaded to a server?

No. All processing happens entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript. Your file never touches a server.

Can I add a logo instead of text?

Yes. The control panel supports both text watermarks and image/logo watermarks, with separate configuration options for each.

Which languages are supported?

The tool is fully localized in 19 languages, matching the same localization tier as the rest of HonestPDF.

Can I control where the watermark appears on the page?

Yes. The WatermarkControlPanel lets you configure position, rotation, opacity, and size before applying the watermark.
