How do I add a watermark to an image for free?

Can I tile the watermark across the whole photo?

Yes — choose the Tiled position to repeat the text diagonally over the entire image.

Does ScanText add its own watermark?

No — only your text is added; there's no ScanText branding on the output.

Is my image uploaded?

No — watermarking happens locally in your browser on scantext.net.
