How to Add Watermarks and Bookmarks in .NET using the PDF Library

Learn how to add watermarks and bookmarks to a PDF document in a console app using the Syncfusion .NET PDF Library. This video demonstrates how to add text and image watermarks and remove watermarks. It also shows how to add, insert, modify, and remove bookmarks from a PDF document.

A watermark refers to a design, pattern, or text applied to a digital or physical document, image, or video to signify its ownership or authenticity. Typically, watermarks are transparent and strategically placed so as not to disrupt the content while still being visible enough to indicate the source of the material. This feature can be utilized in various contexts, including branding and marketing, safeguarding against unauthorized usage, identifying and attributing the source of content, and ensuring document security, authenticity, and verification.

The Syncfusion .NET PDF Library supports adding image or text watermarks to a PDF document to indicate the authenticity or ownership of the document. The library provides APIs for programmatically adding watermarks to PDF documents, with options for customizing the watermark’s position, size, and opacity. Bookmarks in PDFs are links or pointers that function as a table of contents, providing an easy way to navigate to specific sections in a document.

The Syncfusion .NET PDF Library is used to create, update, and remove bookmarks in PDF documents using C#. With the help of the .NET PDF Library, we can efficiently manage and manipulate PDF documents to enhance the reading experience of our customers.
