Stamp a label, date or note onto any page — real, selectable text. It all happens in your browser, so your document is never uploaded. That's the part iLovePDF can't say.

Common questions
Are my files uploaded?+
No. The text is added entirely in your browser with a local PDF engine — your document never leaves your device. iLovePDF and most tools upload your PDF to their servers first.
Is the text real, selectable text?+
Yes — it's added as a proper text layer, so it stays sharp at any zoom and can be selected and copied, not flattened into a picture.
Can I choose where it goes?+
Pick any page, one of five positions (the four corners or centre), a font size, and a colour.
What's this good for?+
Stamping a label like DRAFT or CONFIDENTIAL, adding a date or reference number, signing off a note, or filling a simple blank — without a full PDF editor.
Is there a limit?+
No artificial caps. Free, unlimited, no signup or watermark.
