Add Stamp to PDF

Put a single text or image stamp at a chosen spot on chosen pages - APPROVED, a received date, a departmental mark or a seal. Unlike a watermark, which tiles across the whole document, a stamp is placed once per page at the position you pick, so it behaves like a rubber stamp pressed onto the sheet.

How to stamp a PDF

  1. Upload the PDF.
  2. Choose a text stamp and enter the wording, or upload an image.
  3. Pick the pages to stamp and set the position on the page.
  4. Adjust rotation, size and opacity, then apply and download.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a stamp and a watermark?

A stamp is placed once, at a position you choose, on the pages you choose. A watermark repeats across the whole page and across the whole document. For a one-off "APPROVED" on the first page, you want a stamp.

Can I put a stamp on only the last page?

Yes - the page selection accepts individual pages and ranges, so you can stamp the final page alone.

Does a stamp count as a signature?

No. It is a visual mark with nothing behind it. For a signature that can be verified and that detects later changes to the file, use Certificate Sign PDF.
