Documentation

The PDF Page Numbers tool adds page numbers to PDF files locally in your browser. It is useful for contracts, invoices, scans, reports, bid documents, and archive files that need clear page references before sharing or filing.

Key Features

  • Upload one PDF file and read page count locally.
  • Place page numbers at the top or bottom, aligned left, center, or right.
  • Use number, total count, Page text, Roman numerals, or custom template formats.
  • Set start number, skipped front pages, prefix, suffix, font size, color, opacity, and margin.
  • Number all pages, odd pages only, even pages only, or use different odd and even positions.
  • Preview pages, track progress, review result summary, and download the output PDF.

How to Use

  1. Upload the PDF file that needs page numbers.
  2. Choose the position, display format, start number, and skipped pages.
  3. Adjust odd-even rules, font size, color, opacity, and margin as needed.
  4. Check the preview and generate the numbered PDF.
  5. Review the result and download the output file.

Format Notes

  • 1 shows only the current page number.
  • 1 / 10 shows the current number and final number.
  • Page 1 and Page 1 of 10 work well for English documents.
  • Custom templates support {page} and {total}, plus optional prefix and suffix text.
  • Roman numerals are useful for prefaces, appendices, and special front matter.

Common Uses

  • Add page numbers to contracts, agreements, and quotes for review and archive work.
  • Number invoices, receipts, and scanned documents to reduce missing-page risk.
  • Apply consistent footer numbering to reports, bids, and submission files.
  • Use odd-even positions for files prepared for double-sided printing.
