What this tool does

Place a solid color behind existing page content. Choose a background color and opacity while preserving the original page size.

The tool loads the PDF, applies the selected mark or background to every page, and writes a new PDF without changing the original file.

Password-protected, malformed, or unusually complex PDFs may not load. Large documents can use substantial browser memory.

Supported formats

Supports standard PDF input. Existing interactive features may not be preserved by browser-based PDF rewriting.
