FAQ

Can the watermark be removed later?

A stamped watermark becomes part of the page content, so treat it as permanent. Always keep your original file if you may need a clean copy.

Which fonts and languages can the watermark use?

The standard embedded fonts cover Latin, Cyrillic and Greek. For CJK text, symbols or an image logo, split the watermark into an image overlay workflow.
