Add Page Numbers
Number every page — pick the position and starting number.
How it works
- Upload your PDF.
- Choose a position, like bottom center, and a starting number.
- Optionally show the total page count too.
- Download — every page is numbered instantly.
Can I start numbering from something other than 1?
Yes — set any starting number, useful when this PDF continues numbering from another document.
Can I show "3 / 12" instead of just "3"?
Yes — toggle the total-pages option to show the page count alongside each number.
Can I skip numbering the first page, like a cover page?
Yes — check "First page is a cover page" and it's left blank. Page 2 still starts from your chosen starting number, so the visible count doesn't shift.
What number formats are available, like Roman numerals?
Currently plain numeric (1, 2, 3…), optionally shown with the total page count (e.g. "3 / 12"). No Roman numerals yet.
Will page numbers overlap existing content near the edge of the page?
They're placed in the margin area at your chosen position; on pages with unusually large existing margin content, check the preview before downloading.
What's the difference between single page and facing pages mode?
Single page keeps numbers in the same spot on every page. Facing pages mirrors left/right positions on alternating pages, so numbers land on the outer edge of each spread — the way a printed book or bound report is numbered.
