Add a Stamp in a PDF file
Stamp annotations let you add editable stamps to pages as annotations. The built-in stamps (such as Paid, Reviewed, and Approved) give you a simple means to indicate the status of a file. Using the custom stamp feature, you can type your own text to create a stamp, or use any image or PDF file into your own stamp.
