Watermarks in PDF: making documents unique

Watermark stamp in a PDF document

A watermark can be used to mark or brand documents according to individual user needs and wishes.

Now you can incorporate a user-defined watermark as an important part of your corporate design. And when you do, you can use a text in a different font, color or size, or even a graphic representation such as your corporate logo. In addition to the aesthetic value they convey, watermarks also provide a number of important features in terms of security, including the ability to distinctively mark the document as an original or copy, or denote them as being confidential. webPDF enables you to easily add the widest-possible designs of watermarks to PDF documents.

Sending a job application as a PDF

Use a professional format to make a professional impression by preparing and submitting your job application in PDF.

Searching for a new career challenge usually involves a great deal of work and effort. Researching interesting employers and job opportunities is not the only thing that costs a lot in terms of time, patience and nerves. The actual application process itself also demands a certain amount of commitment and perseverance. Sparsely worded job postings and varying requirements as to what needs to be submitted can make the job search difficult even for highly motivated candidates. Forewarned is forearmed. So if you want to avoid the stress involved in running the job-hunt gamut, you need to prepare yourself now for the challenges that lie ahead. The question of content is not the only critical issue. Even the format you choose for your job application package can have a major impact on how smoothly the process goes, and more importantly, on how successful your efforts turn out to be. Cover letters, transcripts, letters of recommendation, resumes, CVs and statements of employment must not only be correct in terms of the information they contain, but be presented in a form that is at once appealing and of high quality.
