Can the watermark be removed after adding it?

The watermark is permanently embedded in the file. It cannot be easily removed, which is the purpose of using it — content protection.

Does watermark affect file size?

Text watermark impact on size is minimal (kilobytes). Image-based watermarks may increase size slightly depending on image resolution.

Can I put different watermarks on different pages?

Currently the same watermark applies to all selected pages. For different watermarks, apply to separate page groups.

Does watermark appear when printing?

Yes, the watermark is a permanent part of the file and appears when printing and on screen with the same appearance.

What is the best logo image format?

PNG with transparent background is best — allows page content to show behind the logo. JPG also works but with a white background.
