Frequently asked questions

Where do the numbers appear?

You choose: bottom center, bottom left, bottom right, top center or top right. Every page gets the same placement with a comfortable margin from the edge.

Can I start numbering from a number other than 1?

Yes — set any starting number. Useful when your PDF is one chapter of a larger document.

Will this change my PDF's content or quality?

No. The numbers are stamped on top of each page; your original content, fonts and images stay exactly as they were.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. Numbering happens entirely in your browser with the pdf-lib engine. Your PDF never leaves your device.

What if my PDF is password-protected?

Password-protected PDFs can't be opened by this tool — you'll see a clear message. Remove the password first, then try again.
