About the Add Page Numbers Tool
This tool stamps page numbers onto a PDF, so every page is clearly labelled. Numbered pages make long documents far easier to reference, review and keep in order, and many official submissions actually require them. You can usually choose where the numbers appear and which page they start from, without altering any of your existing content.
How to add page numbers to a PDF
- Open the PDF you want to number.
- Choose the position, such as bottom-centre or bottom-right.
- Set the starting number if needed.
- Preview how the numbers will look.
- Download the numbered PDF.
This is useful for paginating a project report, a legal bundle or a multi-page govt application before submission. The whole process runs inside your web browser, so your document is never uploaded to any server and your file stays completely private on your own device.
