How to Remove Stamps from a PDF Free

Remove "Draft", "Confidential", or custom stamps from a PDF. Free online tool.

PDF stamps are annotations. FixMyPDF's clean tool removes all annotation layers including stamps — free, no account.

Steps

Go to FixMyPDF and use the remove annotations tool. Upload your PDF. Remove all annotations (including stamps). Download.

Stamps vs Watermarks

Stamps are annotation overlays — they can be removed with the annotations tool. Watermarks that are embedded in the page content require the redact tool to remove.

Test First

Download and check the result. If the stamp remains, it is embedded content rather than an annotation — use the redact tool to cover it.
