Stamp text across every page
Type your watermark text, choose an opacity (0.05 to 1) and a rotation angle (45° by default), and Foldr draws it in large grey letters across the centre of every page. The result is saved with -watermarked added to the original name.
Common choices are DRAFT, CONFIDENTIAL, COPY or a recipient's name before sharing a document. Foldr does not add its own watermark or branding to your files.
