orlogo_file

for complete custom placement. - Visual Dynamics: Control the visual impact with parameters for
rotation
(from -360 to 360 degrees),scale
(0.1–5.0), andopacity
(0 to 1). For image watermarks, specifylogo_size
in pixels while maintaining aspect ratio. - Text Styling: For text watermarks, select your preferred
font_family
(Helvetica, Arial, Times, Courier), adjustfont_size
, setfont_weight
(normal, bold), and definetext_color
using hex codes. - Page-Level Control: Apply watermarks to
all
pages,odd
,even
,first
,last

). You can alsoskip_first_page
orskip_last_page
for covers or back pages. - Repeat Patterns: For maximum visibility, utilize the
repeat_pattern
feature with customizablerepeat_spacing_x
andrepeat_spacing_y

These powerful features ensure that your digital documents carry a consistent and secure visual identity.
Transformative Use Cases for Businesses and Developers
Integrating the PDF Watermark API opens up a world of possibilities for various industries and applications:
- Document Security: Prevent unauthorized distribution and claim ownership by imprinting confidential documents with a 'Confidential' or 'Do Not Distribute' watermark. This is critical for legal, financial, and healthcare sectors.
- Brand Consistency: Automatically add your company logo or brand name to all outgoing PDFs, reinforcing your brand identity with every shared document.
- Copyright Protection: Safeguard creative works, research papers, and proprietary content by embedding subtle yet effective copyright watermarks.

- Academic and Publishing: Protect academic papers, e-books, and digital publications from unauthorized use.
- Automated Workflows: Developers can integrate this API into CRM, ERP, or document management systems to automate the watermarking process for invoices, contracts, certificates, and more, saving valuable time and reducing manual errors.
Seamless Integration and Flexible Output Options
The PDF Watermark API is designed for easy integration into any programming environment. It uses standard HTTP POST requests, making it accessible from virtually any language or platform. The primary endpoint for single PDF processing is /api/pdf-toolkit/pdf-watermark/
, and for processing multiple files simultaneously, the /api/pdf-toolkit/pdf-watermark/batch/
endpoint offers robust functionality.
You can upload your PDF file and, optionally, your logo image (logo_file
) along with your chosen watermark text (watermark_text
) and all the customization parameters. The API offers flexible response types:
- Direct PDF Download (
response_type: pdf

- ZIP Archive: For comprehensive output, receive a ZIP file containing the watermarked PDF, the original PDF, the logo (if provided), and a metadata JSON file.
- Batch ZIP Response: When using the batch endpoint, receive a ZIP containing all watermarked PDFs and a summary JSON for per-file results.
