Frequently asked questions

What is Add watermark?

Add a text watermark to an image.

When would I actually use this?

Preparing an image for somewhere specific: cropping to an aspect ratio, resizing under an upload limit, straightening a photo, or shrinking a file that is too heavy.

What is the most common mistake?

Enlarging a small image and expecting detail. Upscaling invents pixels from the ones already there; it can smooth an image but it cannot add information that was never captured.

How is Add watermark different from Add a border to an image?

They sit next to each other but answer different questions: Add a border to an image is the one to open when you need it to frame a picture with a solid border of the width and colour you pick. Pick whichever matches what you're starting from — both are free.

Is there a tool for the next step?

Add Line to Image is the closest one after this: Draw freehand lines on an image — pick color, width and style, undo, and download — all in your browser.

What else is worth having open alongside it?

Add margins to an image and Add Text to Image — they come up in the same task often enough to be worth a second tab.

Where do the figures come from?

Editing goes through the browser's canvas, and the output carries no watermark. Re-saving a JPEG re-compresses it, so work from the original rather than from an already-edited copy.

ExplainerWatermarking: What It Protects, and What It Does NotA visible mark lives in the pixels, so it survives every copy — and degrades the image for every honest viewer at the same time. Measured: what a corner mark costs, what a tiled mark costs, and how each compares to metadata credit, Content Credentials and invisible watermarking.GuideHiding a Face, a Plate or an IBAN in an Image — PermanentlyBlur and pixelation are reversible — not by undoing the maths, but by guessing forwards. Against this tool's own blur and pixelate modes, a recovery attack returned the hidden value at rank 1 of 10,000. Both modes have since been removed. Here is what is left, and why it cannot be attacked the same way.How-toSending a Document for Signature: the Workflow, Not the LawWhether a drawn signature is valid is settled elsewhere.

European law says that cannot be dismissed just for being electronic — and also that it carries none of the presumptions a qualified signature does. Knowing which tier you have is the difference between a document that holds and one you have to defend.How-toHow to Compress an Image Without Losing QualitySmaller images load faster and rank better.
