How do I add page numbers to a PDF?
Open the tool, load your PDF, choose the corner or footer position for the number, set a starting number if needed, and export. Numbers are stamped on every page.
Add Page Numbers to PDF
Add automatic page numbers to every page of a PDF — choose the position, font size, and starting number, all processed locally in your browser.
Frequently asked questions
Can I start numbering from a page other than 1?
Yes. You can set a custom starting number — useful if your document is a chapter within a larger work.
Can I skip numbering on the first page?
Check the tool options — you can typically exclude a cover page so numbering begins on page 2 with the number 1 (or whichever offset you set).
Is my PDF uploaded to a server?
No. Page numbering runs locally in your browser and your file never leaves your device.
Is it safe? Are my files uploaded?
These tools run locally in your browser — for supported local operations your files are not uploaded to a server. Processing the document on your own device avoids sending it to a third party.
