Add a watermark to PDF or Word files or remove previously added watermarks using Python

With this Python library, developers can add an image or text watermark over PDF or Word document, as well as remove an already added watermark in seconds

Protect your documents from unauthorized distribution and add the watermark online. To do this, just load a PDF, Word or other document format and add a text or image watermark using Python. Then save the watermarked PDF or Word document in a convenient format such as DOC, DOCX, PDF, HTML, RTF, XPS and others. You can also remove the watermark from documents to make them easier to process unless it violates anyone's rights.

Add watermark in Python

With this Python API, developers can add a watermark to PDF, Word, or other documents online. You can create the watermark using text or an image and then insert that watermark into your PDF or Word document by setting the overlay angle in Python.

Note: there is no need to install any third party applications or libraries. Therefore, our Python software solution is very easy to use.

Remove watermark in Python

The given Python SDK is also helpful to remove watermarks. For example, removing a watermark in Word means that you can load the desired Word document stamped with a text or image watermark, remove this watermark from the document using Python, and then save the output file in a convenient format.

Watermark in Word or PDF

To evaluate our Python API, load the document to which you want to add a watermark and the watermark as an image or text. Then select a convenient export file format – DOCX, PDF, MD, HTML, TXT, DOC, RTF, EPUB, XPS and others.

Use the following example to see how it works:

File needs to add watermarks
Run code
Upload an image you want insert
Select the target format from the list
import asposewordscloud

words_api = WordsApi(
   client_id = '####-####-####-####-####', client_secret = '##################') 

request_document = open('Input1.docx', 'rb')
request_image_file = open('Input2.docx', 'rb')
insert_watermark_image_online = 
   asposewordscloud.models.requests.InsertWatermarkImageOnlineRequest(
	   document=request_document, image_file=request_image_file)
inserted_watermark_image = 
   words_api.insert_watermark_image_online(insert_watermark_image_online)

convert_document = asposewordscloud.models.requests.ConvertDocumentRequest(
   document=list(inserted_watermark_image.document.values())[0], format='docx')
words_api.convert_document(convert_document)
import asposewordscloud

words_api = WordsApi(
   client_id = '####-####-####-####-####', client_secret = '##################') 

request_document = open('Input.docx', 'rb')
request_watermark_text = asposewordscloud.WatermarkText(
   text='This is the watermark text.', rotation_angle=90)
insert_watermark_text_online = 
   asposewordscloud.models.requests.InsertWatermarkTextOnlineRequest(
	   document=request_document, watermark_text=request_watermark_text)
inserted_watermark_text = words_api.insert_watermark_text_online(insert_watermark_text_online)

convert_document = asposewordscloud.models.requests.ConvertDocumentRequest(
   document=list(inserted_watermark_text.document.values())[0], format='docx')
words_api.convert_document(convert_document)
import asposewordscloud

words_api = WordsApi(
   client_id = '####-####-####-####-####', client_secret = '##################') 

request_document = open('Input.docx', 'rb')
delete_watermark_online = asposewordscloud.models.requests.DeleteWatermarkOnlineRequest(
   document=request_document)
deleted_watermark = words_api.delete_watermark_online(delete_watermark_online)

convert_document = asposewordscloud.models.requests.ConvertDocumentRequest(
   document=list(deleted_watermark.document.values())[0], format='docx')
words_api.convert_document(convert_document)
