Watermark: what it is and what it is for
Text or an image on every page that indicates a document's status or ownership.
A watermark is semi-transparent text or an image placed over or under the content of each page. It is used to indicate the status of a document (draft, confidential, copy) or its owner.
It is a visual warning, not a technical protection: anyone who has the file can try to remove it with the right tools. If you need it to be impossible to edit, combine the watermark with flattening the document.
In Rayo PDF GO you type the text, choose the opacity and it is applied to all pages on your device.

Does a watermark prevent the document from being copied?
No. It is a visual signal, not a lock.
