Frequently asked questions

Can I change the watermark's position or size?

The watermark is placed diagonally across the center of each page at a size that scales with the page, giving consistent coverage without extra configuration.

Will the watermark make the original text hard to read?

The watermark uses a light, semi-transparent style so the original content stays readable underneath.
