Frequently asked questions
Can I control the watermark opacity and angle? ▾
Yes. The opacity slider lets you set transparency from 5% to 80%. The angle slider rotates the watermark text from −90° to +90°. Adjust both with the live preview to find the right look before applying.
Can I apply a watermark to only specific pages? ▾
Yes. Choose from "All pages", "Odd pages", "Even pages", or "First page only" in the apply mode options.
Will the watermark appear when the PDF is printed? ▾
Yes. The watermark is embedded directly in the PDF content — it will appear on all printed copies exactly as shown in the on-screen preview.
Can I remove a watermark I added with PeakPDFs? ▾
Not easily — the watermark is baked permanently into the PDF page content. Always keep a copy of the original document before watermarking if you might need to remove it later.
What colours are available for the watermark text? ▾
The tool offers six preset colours (gray, red, amber, green, blue, black) and a full custom colour picker so you can match any brand colour exactly.
