The watermark is in a separate PDF layer, so is trivially removable
before upload.

I have just suggested on internal-l that someone give JSTOR a call,
giving them the chance to look good by releasing this stuff
themselves. Given that US law is utterly and unambiguously against
them having *any* control via copyright over this stuff, no matter
what silly deals they may or may not have signed with the Royal
Society.

(I'd be uploading them myself now except I'm in the UK, where the
copyright situation surrounding slavish copies of PD works is still in
a state of quantum uncertainty.)
