Frequently Asked Questions
How does PDFtiny remove watermarks from PDF documents?
PDFtiny uses dual-mode cleanup: vector content-stream filtering to strip overlay text/image objects, and smart visual area erasing to wipe unwanted scanner stamps or scanner app banners.
Can it remove CamScanner or scanner app bottom banners?
Yes, select the bottom banner area on any page and apply the eraser to cleanly remove scanner watermarks across single or multiple pages.
Will removing the watermark damage surrounding text or images?
Our targeted visual eraser lets you specify precise coordinate boundaries so only the watermark artifact is cleansed without touching adjacent text.
Does removing watermarks work on scanned documents?
Yes, for scanned image-based PDFs, the visual area eraser replaces the watermark region with seamless background matching.
