Frequently Asked Questions

3 questions answered

Can I add a logo to every page of a PDF?

The current tool adds images to individual pages. To add a logo to every page, you'll need a more advanced tool like PDF24 or Adobe Acrobat's batch editing feature.

Can I add a stamp or seal image to a PDF?

Yes. Create your stamp as a PNG (with transparent background using the Remove Background tool if needed), then upload it via the Sign PDF tool and position it on the PDF.

Will the PDF file size increase after adding an image?

Yes — the image is embedded in the PDF, which increases file size by approximately the size of the image. Compress the image before inserting, and compress the final PDF if needed.
