I have a proof to send to the creative team in 20 minutes and the editor wants a visible version note so nobody mistakes it for final. I’m new to our versioning style and nervous about confusing people. Tell me the best place on the PDF to put a concise visible note, the exact wording that signals work-in-progress, and a quick way to stamp it on every page without altering layout.

Questions people ask

honest answers

No. Each page gives you a ready prompt you can paste into an AI assistant, plus the plain steps to do it yourself. Start with either — the goal is the finished job, not the tool.
