You are able to upload a PDF and have an identifiable watermark added to the file. Simply tick the "Add watermark to your PDFs"  box to have our system automatically add a watermark to each page.

If a PDF can be watermarked, a notification email will appear when it’s downloaded to inform users that the PDF is ready to be downloaded.

If a PDF cannot be watermarked, users can download and open a PDF directly.

This is what the watermark looks like:

‘TEST-ACCOUNT’ is the Seller Store Profile name
