PDF Stamp Placement Checklist

  • Confirm that the receiving organization accepts electronic stamp images
  • Review every page in the generated PDF, then download it

What to Know Before Adding a Transparent PNG Stamp to a PDF

Transparent background

A transparent PNG or WebP places only the stamp over document text and lines without a white box.

Size and clarity

A large stamp image stays clearer when scaled down proportionally. Avoid enlarging a very small source image.

Document review

Electronic stamp acceptance and signature requirements vary. Check the other party's or organization's requirements for important contracts and submissions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the PDF and stamp image uploaded to a server?

No. No. Reading the PDF, placing stamps, and creating the new PDF all happen in your browser. Your files are not sent to or stored on Congdy Coding servers.

Which image format should I use for a stamp?

Use a PNG or WebP image with a transparent background. Stamps from the online maker can be transferred directly or downloaded as transparent PNGs.

Can I add stamps to multiple pages?

Yes. Yes. Select a page and add the stamp repeatedly to use it on multiple pages. You can also place multiple stamps on one page.

Can I change the stamp position and size?

Yes. Yes. Drag the stamp with a mouse or finger, then use the size, opacity, and rotation sliders.

Does text selection remain available in a stamped PDF?

Unstamped pages keep their original structure. Stamped pages are rebuilt as image-based pages for accurate output, so existing text selection and links may be lost on those pages.
