Tailor Your Page Numbering Experience

We provide a suite of options to ensure your page numbers integrate perfectly with your document's design and purpose:

Placement Options:
Select from various strategic positions, including top, bottom, left, center, and right, to best suit your document's layout.
Flexible Formats:
Choose simple numerical counts, "Page X", "X of Y", or the comprehensive "Page X of Y" to match your preferred style guide or aesthetic.
Custom Starting Point:
Crucially, you can define the actual page number where the numbering begins. For instance, if your document has a title page and table of contents before the main content starts on the 5th physical page, you can set the numbering to begin with '1' from that 5th page. Alternatively, use the "Use document's first page as '1'" option for straightforward numbering from the PDF's beginning.
Style & Readability:
Adjust the font size and select a color to ensure your page numbers are clearly visible and complement your document's design.
Margin Control:
Precisely control the distance of the page numbers from the edge, preventing any overlap with your content and maintaining a clean look.

Quick Answers: Your Questions Addressed

Absolutely, yes! Our service is completely free, with no hidden costs or limitations. You can add page numbers to as many PDF files as you need, whenever you need.

Your security is our top priority. All processing of your PDF files occurs directly within your web browser. This means your documents are never uploaded to our servers, ensuring your data remains entirely private and secure throughout the process.

Currently, our tool is designed to apply sequential page numbers to all pages within your uploaded PDF document. For more granular control over page ranges, specialized desktop PDF editing software would be required.

If your PDF already has page numbers, our tool will add new page numbers on top of the existing ones. To avoid overlapping numbers, it's recommended to remove any pre-existing numbering using a dedicated PDF editor before using our tool, if possible.
