Add page numbers to a PDF — privately in your browser
Choose position, format, and start number, then download a numbered PDF. Nothing is uploaded; numbering runs on your device.
What you can do with it
- Number a report for printing
- Add “Page 1 of N” footers before sharing a print-ready PDF.
- Skip covers and appendices
- Apply numbers only to a page range so front matter stays unnumbered.
How to add page numbers to a PDF
- Open your PDF — it loads locally with no upload.
- Pick position, format, start number, and optional page range.
- Download the numbered PDF.
Number reports without cloud processing
Printed packets and board decks need consistent footers. Adding numbers in the browser keeps the manuscript local while you choose position, format, start number, and page range — skip covers and appendices when needed.
Page range tips
Leave front matter unnumbered by applying numbers only to the body range. Use “Page X of N” when readers need total length; use plain digits for minimal footers.
