The Indispensable Need for Document Security in the Digital Age
In today's fast-paced digital world, safeguarding your documents is more critical than ever. Whether it's sensitive company reports, personal contracts, or copyrighted creative works, ensuring the integrity and authenticity of your PDFs is paramount. Watermarking stands out as a simple yet highly effective method to protect your intellectual property, deter unauthorized distribution, and add a layer of professional branding.
However, implementing robust watermarking capabilities often requires complex programming or reliance on cumbersome desktop software. This is where seamless API solutions become invaluable, empowering developers, SaaS owners, and entrepreneurs to integrate powerful features directly into their applications and workflows.
Introducing TompisAPIs' Ultimate PDF Toolkit: The PDF Watermark API
TompisAPIs is proud to present a versatile solution within its Ultimate PDF Toolkit: the PDF Watermark API. This powerful endpoint is designed to help you effortlessly add both text and image watermarks to your PDF files, giving you complete control over their appearance and placement. Gone are the days of manual watermarking or struggling with complex libraries.
The PDF Watermark API, accessible via its dedicated endpoint /api/pdf-toolkit/pdf-watermark/
, simplifies the process into a straightforward API call. For those managing large volumes, a convenient /api/pdf-toolkit/pdf-watermark/batch/
endpoint is also available, allowing for efficient bulk processing of multiple PDF files.
You can choose your preferred output format: receive the watermarked PDF directly, get it as a base64-encoded string within a JSON response, or obtain a convenient ZIP file containing the watermarked PDF along with the original files and metadata.

,bottom-right
, or usecustom
X and Y offsets (x_offset
,y_offset
) for pixel-perfect placement. - Dynamic Appearance: Control the visual impact with parameters such as
rotation
(from -360 to 360 degrees),scale
(0.1 to 5.0), andopacity
(0.0 to 1.0) for subtle or prominent effects. - Text Watermark Specifics: For text watermarks, define the
font_family
(Helvetica, Arial, Times, Courier),font_size
,font_weight
(normal, bold), andtext_color
(hex codes) to match your branding. - Image Watermark Sizing: When using a
logo_file
, easily adjust itslogo_size
in pixels while maintaining its aspect ratio. - Selective Page Application: Apply watermarks to

). You can evenskip_first_page
orskip_last_page
if needed. - Repeat Patterns for Enhanced Security: For pervasive protection, activate
repeat_pattern
and define therepeat_spacing_x
andrepeat_spacing_y
to tile your watermark across the entire page, making it virtually impossible to remove without tampering.
