Why Add DRAFT Watermark to PDF Documents?

Sharing an unfinished contract or report? Add a DRAFT watermark to prevent it from being mistaken for the final version. Or mark documents as CONFIDENTIAL to remind recipients of the sensitivity. Watermarks are visible on every page but don't obstruct the content.
