PDF Overlay: how it works
Choose the base PDF first and the overlay PDF second. PDF Care rebuilds each base page and draws the second page either above or behind it, with optional first-page repetition and opacity.

Questions about Overlay PDF
Are files uploaded when I use Overlay PDF?
No. PDF Care processes this tool locally in your browser, so the document contents are not uploaded to a PDF Care application server.
Which PDF is the base document?
The first selected PDF is the base. The second selected PDF supplies the overlay or underlay pages.
Can one overlay page repeat on every page?
Yes. Keep Repeat first overlay page enabled for letterheads or single-page templates.
