Watermark PDF for notaries
Updated July 2026
Arthize lets notaries and signing agents add a watermark to a PDF in a private workspace — free, with no watermark. Adding a watermark stamps text or an image — like DRAFT or CONFIDENTIAL — across every page at the opacity and angle you choose.
Why notaries add a watermark to a PDF
A notary merges a loan package into one file for the appointment, captures signatures and initials, then archives the executed document as PDF/A.
Built for affidavits. Whether it's affidavits, acknowledgements, loan packages, Arthize's watermark pdf keeps the work inside your private workspace. Notarised documents carry identity and financial data; private handling is non-negotiable.
What matters when you add a watermark to a PDF
A watermark can be text or an image applied across every page.
Opacity and angle control how prominent the mark is.
Watermarks are useful for marking drafts and confidential copies.
