Add a Stamp
Stamp annotations let you add editable stamps to pages as annotations. The built-in stamps (such as
Draft, Reviewed, and Approved) give you a simple means to indicate the status of a file. Using the custom
stamp feature, you can type your own text to create a stamp, or use any image or PDF file into your own
stamp.
TIP: Stamps are stored on the annotation layer. You can move or edit stamps any time,
and printing stamps in a PDF document is optional. For more information, see Annota-
tion layer and content layer.
To add a stamp to a PDF document:
1. On the Review tab, in the Comment group, click Stamp to use the most recently used stamp, or
click the arrow below Stamp and select one of the following types of stamp:
o
Recently used: lists up to four of the most recently used stamps
o
Standard: commonly used stamps that are provided with Nitro Pro 9
o
Dynamic: common stamps, provided with Nitro Pro 9 that dynamically include the name of
who applied the stamp, and the time and date the stamp is applied
o

2. Click on the PDF page where you want to place the stamp. You can click and drag the stamp to
reposition it, or use the red handles to resize the stamp.
TIP: Custom stamps let you make a stamp with text or an image. You can specify the color of text, and
include dynamic content. Images can be any of these formats: .pdf, .bmp, .gif, .jpg, .tif, .png.
