About the Add Page Numbers to PDF

Handytool's Add Page Numbers tool stamps clean page numbers onto every page of your PDF. Choose where the numbers sit, pick a format like 1, 1 of N, or Page 1 of N, set the starting number, and fine-tune the size and margin. The numbering is applied in your browser, so your document never leaves your device.

Add Page Numbers to PDF FAQ

Can I start numbering from a page other than 1?
Yes. Set the 'Start at' value to any number and the first page takes that number, counting up from there.
Where can the page numbers go?
You can place them at the top or bottom of the page, aligned left, center, or right — six positions in total.
Will the numbers cover my content?
The numbers sit in the margin, and you can adjust the margin distance and font size so they stay clear of your text.
Are my files uploaded?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser — your file is never uploaded to a server.
