Update a recently edited background image

of the image rather than removing the old version and re-adding the new one.

Note: This process applies only to backgrounds added in Acrobat 7.0 or later.

Remove a background from all pages
❖ Do one of the following:
• Open a single PDF, or select one or more component PDFs in a PDF Portfolio. Then choose Tools > Pages >
Background > Remove.
• To remove a background from multiple PDFs, close any open PDFs and choose Tools > Pages > Background >
Remove. In the dialog box, click Add Files, choose Add Files or Add Open Files, and then select the files. Click OK,
and then in the Output Options dialog box, specify your folder and filename preferences.
Add and edit watermarks
A watermark is text or an image that appears either in front of or behind existing document content, like a stamp. For
example, you could apply a “Confidential” watermark to pages with sensitive information. You can add multiple
watermarks to one or more PDFs, but each watermark must be added separately. You can specify the page or range of
pages on which each watermark appears.
Note: Unlike a stamp, a watermark is integrated into PDF pages as a fixed element. A stamp is a type of PDF comment,
which others reading the PDF can open to display a text annotation, move, change, or delete.
