Why Watermark Your Documents?
Watermarking is more than just placing text on a page. It serves several important purposes:
- Copyright Protection: It clearly marks the document as your property, discouraging unauthorized use and distribution.
- Branding: Adding your company logo as a watermark is an excellent way to maintain brand consistency across all your documents.
- Document Status: Use text like "Draft," "Confidential," or "Sample" to clearly communicate the state of the document to all recipients.
