Add Page Numbers to PDF
Add clean page numbers to any PDF, exactly where you want them.
Documents stitched together from several sources usually end up with no consistent pagination — a problem for court filings, tender submissions or course handouts. This tool stamps clean page numbers onto your PDF: pick the position (bottom center, bottom right or top right), the starting number (useful when a cover page shouldn’t count) and the format, either a plain “n” or “n / total”. The document is rebuilt entirely on your device — it never touches a server — and downloads in one click. Free, no sign-up, no watermark, and nothing else in your layout is touched.
How does it work?
- Drop your PDF file in the area above.
- Choose the number position, the starting number and the format.
- Click “Apply”: the numbered PDF downloads immediately.
Frequently asked questions
Can numbering start at something other than 1?
Yes. The “Start at” field accepts any number — handy for skipping a cover page or continuing the pagination of a previous volume.
Which numbering formats are available?
Two: the number alone (“4”) or number plus total (“4 / 12”), which reads better in official documents and printed binders.
Is my document uploaded to a server?
No. Numbering happens entirely on your own device; your documents never leave your computer.
Could the numbers overlap my content?
Numbers are placed in the usual page margins. If your layout already fills the full page height, pick the least crowded position — top right, for instance.
