Add CONFIDENTIAL Watermark to Internal Draft PDFs

A draft contract sent without a watermark can leak early. Watermark PDF stamps CONFIDENTIAL or DRAFT across every page before email. Legal, finance, and product teams circulate PDFs internally long before final sign-off. A visible CONFIDENTIAL or DRAFT watermark signals the file is not approved for external use — even if someone forwards it by mistake.

Legal, finance, and product teams circulate PDFs internally long before final sign-off. A visible CONFIDENTIAL or DRAFT watermark signals the file is not approved for external use — even if someone forwards it by mistake.

Pick text, opacity, and angle

Upload the PDF, enter your stamp text, and adjust opacity so body copy stays readable. Rotate diagonally for classic draft styling, or keep it horizontal across the header margin.

All pages or a range

Apply to the full document for board packs, or limit to appendix pages when only one section is preliminary. Preview before download so recipients see the mark on every intended sheet.
