About this tool

Add page numbers to a PDF. Pick the position (six corners), the format (just the number, '1 / 10', 'Page 1', or 'Page 1 of 10'), and the font size and color. Limit to a page range if you want to skip front matter.

Frequently asked questions

Can I start the count from a specific number?

Yes. Set 'Start at' to whatever you want — useful when the first few pages are unnumbered front matter.

What positions are supported?

All six corners and centers — top/bottom × left/center/right.

Will the existing content shift?

No. Page numbers are drawn over your content, never below it.
