Many PDF documents, especially those created from scans or merged from multiple sources, lack page numbers. This tool lets you add sequential page numbers to any PDF file directly in your browser. Choose where the numbers appear, set the starting number, adjust the font size, and download your numbered document.
Page numbers can be placed at the bottom center, bottom left, bottom right, top center, top left, or top right of each page. Bottom center is the most common choice for general documents, while bottom right or top right works well for academic papers and manuscripts.
Adding page numbers is essential for legal documents, court filings, academic submissions, book manuscripts, and business reports. It helps readers navigate multi-page documents and is often required for official submissions. You can also set a custom starting number if your document begins partway through a larger work.
All processing happens entirely in your browser using the pdf-lib JavaScript library. Your PDF never leaves your device and is never uploaded to any server, making this tool safe for sensitive and confidential documents.
