# Watermark
> Add watermarks on your PDFs.
## How to use
```bash
./watermark.sh <PDF FILE>
```
You can watermark multiple PDFs by using the `find` command, such as :
```bash
find ./folder -name "*.pdf" -exec ./watermark.sh {} \;
```
The watermarked PDF is named <PDF FILE>-out.pdf. The original one is not deleted.
## How it works
First it creates the watermark in a specific file, then it exports the PDF in
multiple PNGs, and watermark each extracted page, still in the PNG format so it
cannot be then edited or modified (easily) using some PDF editing software.
The script is pretty short and straightforward to read, you can adapt without
much difficulties I believe.
## Additional notes
This was part of a personnal project that wasn't supposed to be made public, so
excuse the lack of comments and code dirtiness.
