Run this tool

The file is processed on this server and deleted as soon as the response is sent. Nothing is stored, and the result is returned directly to you rather than parked behind a link.

The document
Up to 25 MB. The file's contents are checked, not just its name.
The stamp
Type the text, or choose an image below — at least one of the two. The stamp is centred on every page and shrunk to fit the page it lands on.
JPEG or PNG as they are; GIF, BMP and WebP are decoded on the way in. Scaled to at most half the page with its proportions intact. Leave it empty to use the text instead.
How it looks
How much ink the stamp lays down. At 20% the page reads through it; at 90% it dominates.
Turned about the centre of each page.
The stamp becomes part of the page: it cannot be lifted off again without the original file — which is the point, and also the limit.
