Overlay PDF Online
Need to place one PDF on top of another? PDFMax overlays two PDF files into a single document, lining up the pages so the top layer sits cleanly over the base. It's the easy way to add a letterhead, logo, stamp, signature page or watermark to existing pages without retyping anything. Put the overlay in front to stamp content on top, or behind to use it as a background. The tool is completely free, needs no signup and no software to install, and runs right in your browser on desktop or mobile. Your files stay private - just upload, overlay and download.
