Add Page Numbers

Stamp clean page numbers onto every page of your PDF. Choose the position (top or bottom, left, center, or right), the starting number, font size, and whether to show just the number or "Page X of Y". Numbers are embedded as real vector text using pdf-lib - not as images - so they scale cleanly at any zoom and remain searchable.

Frequently asked questions

Can I start numbering from a page other than 1?

Yes. Set any starting number - useful when combining sections where the first section already has its own numbers.

Can I skip numbering the first page (cover page)?

Yes. You can set the first page to skip, so numbering begins visibly on page 2 while the cover remains clean.

What fonts are available?

The tool uses the standard PDF Helvetica and Times fonts which are always available without embedding. They render cleanly on all PDF viewers.
