A watermark is embedded in a document having a plurality of pages. The pages of the document are analyzed to produce watermark information, which indicates whether the page is suitable for use with one or more of a plurality of watermarking schemes. The plurality of watermarking schemes may include page element shifting, flyspecking and text warping. An identifier (ID) is established, the ID associating the document with a user receiving the document. The ID is embedded in the pages of the document using the plurality of watermark schemes according to the watermark information. To recover an ID from a document, the pages of the document are analyzed to identify watermark information associated with the document. Embedded watermarks are recovered from the pages using the watermark information.
