In daily work or study, we often come across PDF files with watermarks. Whether they affect readability or simply look unappealing, removing them is a common need. This article introduces an interesting method to remove watermarks using pdftoword through a simple three-step process: PDF to Word → Edit → Word to PDF.
Step 1: Convert PDF to Word
First, visit PDFasset and select the pdf to word function. Upload the PDF file you need to process. PDFasset uses 256-bit advanced encryption technology to ensure secure file transfer. The conversion process takes only a few seconds, producing an editable Word document.

Step 2: Remove Watermarks in Word
Open the converted Word document. You may find watermarks appearing in different forms, such as:
- Header/Footer Watermarks: These may be text or images embedded in the header or footer.
- Background Watermarks: Usually light-colored text or images spread across the entire page.
- Text Box Watermarks: Some watermarks are placed in floating text boxes.

This article uses image watermarks as an example, but the process for text watermarks is similar.
Whether dealing with image or text watermarks, the removal methods are essentially the same and can be done using Word's editing tools.
You can quickly remove watermarks using the following methods:
- Header/Footer Watermarks: Double-click the header or footer to enter editing mode, select the watermark, and press Delete
- Background Watermarks: Click “Design” → “Watermark” → “Remove Watermark”, and all background watermarks will be deleted.
- Text Box Watermarks: Right-click the watermark text box, select “Delete”, or select all and remove them in bulk.

Step 3: Convert Word to PDF and Generate a Watermark-Free File
After editing, return to PDFasset and select the word to pdf function to export the document back into a PDF format. The system will automatically optimize the file structure to ensure a high-quality, watermark-free PDF.
