    Open this tool

    Add page numbers to a PDF in bulk, with position (six spots), style (1, 1/10, 1 of 10, Page 1, -1-, 01/10), starting number, skip-first-N-pages, font size and colour all adjustable. Great for reports, tenders and theses that need consistent numbering.

    Numbers are drawn onto the pages without touching the content, and covers or tables of contents can be skipped. Fully local - no uploads.

    How to use it

    1. Add a PDF.
    2. Choose the position: bottom or top, centre, left or right.
    3. Pick a style and set the starting number, skipped pages, font size and colour.
    4. Click Start and download the numbered PDF.

    Frequently asked questions

    How do I skip the cover and table of contents?
    Set skip-first-N-pages to the number of front pages; those pages get no numbers.
    What page-number styles are available?
    Six: 1, 1/10, 1 of 10, Page 1, -1- and 01/10, with a custom starting number.
    Are my files uploaded to a server?
    No. Everything runs in your browser and there is no upload endpoint, so the server never sees your content.
    How large a file can I use?
    Stay under about 100 MB and a few thousand pages. Speed and memory depend on your own device.
    Is it free? Do I need an account?
    It is completely free with no usage limit, and no sign-up or login is required.
    Does it work on phones?
    Yes, the layout is responsive. Large files and complex edits are easier on a desktop.
    Which browsers are supported?
    Any modern browser: Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari and their mobile versions.
    Does it work with scanned PDFs?
    Yes for page-level operations, which do not need a text layer. There is no OCR, so text cannot be pulled out of a scan.
