Remove Watermark from PDF — frequently asked questions

Which watermarks can this remove?+

Watermarks and stamps that a PDF tool added as an annotation or as an optional-content layer — which is how most 'add watermark' features and 'sample'/'confidential' stamps work.

It says no watermark was found — why?+

The mark is drawn directly into the page's content, or it's part of a scanned page image. Those can't be lifted out without re-creating the document; cover them with the Redact tool instead.

Is my PDF uploaded?+

No. The whole operation runs in your browser with pdf-lib — nothing is sent to a server.

Will removing the watermark also remove my comments?+

It targets watermark and stamp annotations and named watermark layers. Ordinary highlights and notes are kept.

Envoyez-vous mes fichiers sur un serveur ?+

Non — chaque outil ici traite vos fichiers entièrement sur votre appareil, et rien n'est envoyé à un serveur. La seule exception concerne les outils d'IA, qui envoient le texte extrait (pas le fichier) à Claude pour faire leur travail.

Y a-t-il une limite de taille de fichier ?+

Nous n'imposons aucune limite artificielle, mais comme le traitement se fait dans votre navigateur, les fichiers très volumineux (plus de 500 Mo ou 1000 pages) sont limités par la mémoire de votre appareil, pas par nous.
