How can I add logo watermark in pdf file on Windows 11?

MarkPDF. Simply add the PDF file into the program and it will automatically remove logos and watermarks from the PDF file. This is one of the best solutions I have tried: https://www.netgeair.com/remove-watermark-from-pdf
I have encountered a similar problem before. I wanted to add a logo watermark to PDF, but I failed in various methods 😂. However, after a lot of trouble, I finally found some free or low-cost methods, which I would like to share with you!
Method 1: Use Canva (free version)
Canva can actually upload PDF directly, add a logo watermark to PDF, and then export PDF. The operation is very simple, the transparency of the logo can be adjusted, and the key is that it will not affect the layout.
Upload PDF → Select Logo → Adjust size and transparency → Save as PDF.
**Advantages: **Simple, lossless layout, no typographical errors.
**Disadvantages: **The free version has page limits, and large files may need to be edited separately.
Method 2: Use PDF-XChang Editor (free version)
This is a super easy-to-use PDF tool, completely free, and supports adding image watermark to PDF.
Open PDF → Select "Add Image" in the toolbar → Select Logo → Adjust position and transparency → Save as PDF.
**Advantages:** Free, no compression, batch processing.
**Disadvantages:** The interface is a little complicated, but it is easy to use once you are familiar with it.
Method 3: Use Adobe Acrobat (online version)
If you only need to use it occasionally, Adobe online tools can also help you add logo watermark to PDF, but some functions require subscription.
Upload PDF → Select "Add Watermark" → Upload Logo → Adjust Transparency → Download.
**Advantages:** Simple operation, no messy layout.
**Disadvantages:** Some functions are charged, and free users may have restrictions.
You used Word to paste the logo and then convert it to PDF, which caused the file to become larger and the layout was wrong. It is likely that Word embedded redundant information (fonts, image formats, etc.) during the conversion. It is recommended to try the above methods, especially PDF-Change Editor, which I personally think is the most stable.
Hope it helps you! You can try and see which method best suits your needs 😆.
