3. Types of Watermarks

3.1 Text Watermark

• Simple words like “DRAFT” or “Confidential”

• Adjustable font, size, color

3.2 Image Watermark

• Your logo or signature

• Can be transparent so text below is readable

(toolsMPro supports both!)

4. How Watermarking Works Behind the Scenes

1. Embed Layer – A semi-transparent layer overlays each PDF page.

2. Coordinate Mapping – Tool sets X-Y positions (center, corner, diagonal).

3. Opacity Control – 10 %–50 % opacity keeps main text readable.

4. Save PDF – Writes new PDF with watermark layer; original stays safe.
