## About

## What it does
PDF Header Footer stamps a header and footer onto an existing PDF, using either text or PNG images. Send a source PDF as an uploaded file or by URL, choose the header and footer content, and get back the modified document.

Use the file-based endpoints when you want the processed PDF streamed directly back, or the URL-based endpoints when you want a signed URL for the stamped file. The input supports `file` or `file_url`, plus `header_text` or `header_image_url` for the header and `footer_text` or `footer_image_url` for the footer. When both text and image are provided for the same slot, text wins.

You can also control presentation details like alignment, font size, and opacity. Shared settings such as `font_size` and `font_opacity` apply as fallbacks, while `header_font_size`, `footer_font_size`, `header_alignment`, `footer_alignment`, `header_opacity`, and `footer_opacity` let you tune each edge independently. Image stamps support `header_image_size` and `footer_image_size` for sizing PNG logos or marks.

Use PDF Header Footer for document branding, report pagination labels, draft or confidentiality marks, and internal distribution copies that need consistent top and bottom text or imagery.
