About Add Page Numbers to PDF

Numbered pages matter whenever a document might be printed, separated or referred to in parts, and many institutions require them on submissions. This prints a number at the foot of every page without disturbing what is already there.

Good to know

  • Numbers are placed in the bottom margin, where they rarely collide with content.
  • Numbering follows the current page order, so reorder first if the sequence is wrong.
  • Useful after merging several documents into one bundle.

Questions

Where does the number appear?

At the bottom of each page, in the margin.

Can I start from a number other than one?

Numbering runs from the first page of the document as it currently stands.

Will it overlap my content?

It sits in the bottom margin, so only a page with content running to the very edge is at risk.

Can I remove the numbers later?

Not from the new file. Keep your original.

Is my file uploaded anywhere?

No. Everything runs inside your browser using your own device. Your file never leaves it, and we never see or store it. You can even disconnect from the internet and the tool still works.

Is it really free?

Yes. No account, no daily limit, no watermark on your files. The site is paid for by ads.
