Your files stay on your device

This tool runs inside your browser: your PDFs are processed on your device and never uploaded. Your browser enforces which servers the page may talk to, and none of them is sent your files. Here's how you can check. Once you've used it, it works offline too.

Questions

Can people remove the watermark?
It is drawn onto every page, so it shows in every reader and when printed. Someone with PDF editing software and enough patience can still take it off, as with any PDF watermark.
Which letters can I use?
Letters of the Latin alphabet with their accents, digits and common punctuation. The watermark uses a font every PDF reader has built in, so the file barely grows, but that font has no other alphabets yet.
Is my PDF uploaded?
No. Your browser adds the watermark, on your device, and the new PDF is saved straight back to it.
