Add image
Add image places a PNG or a JPEG wherever you say, on the pages you choose. You give the spot with two numbers, pick the width, and can let the height adjust itself so nothing gets stretched. It is for stamping a logo, placing a seal or repeating a scanned signature. All processing runs in your browser.
Four steps, nothing to install.
The whole job happens on your computer, start to finish.
Choose the PDF
Drag the file into the tool window.
Choose the image
A PNG or a JPEG. A PNG with a transparent background keeps its transparency.
Say where and how big
Two numbers for the position, counted from the top left corner, and the width.

Which image formats does it take?
PNG and JPEG, and nothing else. And the format is recognised from the file content, not from the name: a GIF or a WebP whose extension someone changed to .png is still caught, with a message that explains what is going on, instead of failing with an internal error. If your image is another format, convert it first.
Will the image be stretched?
Not if you leave the keep proportions option on, which is how it comes: you give the width and the height follows. If you switch it off, the height becomes the image's own size in points, which can distort. It is explained on the field itself because it is not something you would guess.
Does the file get much bigger if I put the logo on 300 pages?
No. The image is stored once inside the PDF and referenced by every page it appears on. Putting a logo on 300 pages costs practically the same as putting it on one.
Can I put the image behind the text?
No. The image is placed on top of the page content. To soften it, lower the opacity. The field is called Opacity and 100 is solid, so 20 or 30 leaves the image nearly transparent, reading as a background that does not hide what is underneath.
The tool says the image is invalid.
Two causes. Either the file is not a PNG or a JPEG, whatever the extension claims, or it is damaged. Check that the image opens normally in another program before using it here.
The image does not fit the page and was refused.
This happens when the position plus the width, or plus the height, run past the margin. With proportions kept, on a tall image it is usually the height that bites. As in the other positioning tools, it refuses rather than shrinking: you chose the size, and changing it underneath would ruin what you worked out.
Where are the coordinates counted from?
The TOP left corner, like a screen, and the second number points at the top of the image. It is the same convention as the Add text tool, on purpose, so you do not have to think differently depending on which tool you are using.
There is no preview.
There is not, the same as in the Add text tool. The practical way is to apply once with rough values, open the result and adjust. For a signature, the Sign PDF tool has an editor where you drag the mark over the page, and that is a better path when it is a single sheet.
Questions about adding an image to a PDF.
Do I need an account?
Yes. The account (magic link, no password) is needed for the subscription. This tool is part of the Premium subscription, EUR 1.99 a month, which removes the limits on every tool and adds OCR. Sign PDF opens on the free plan, with one signature a day.
Is PNG transparency kept?
Yes. A PNG with a transparent background stays transparent inside the PDF.
How is it different from the Sign tool?
The Sign tool has a visual editor, for dragging the signature over the page. This one places the image by coordinates, across many pages at once.
Are my files kept on your servers?
No. Since nothing is sent, nothing is kept outside your browser.
Document missing
its logo?
Open the tool and place it. Nothing to install, nothing sent anywhere.
