What you get

  • 6 positions: top or bottom, left, center or right
  • Formats: 1, Page 1, 1 / 10, Page 1 of 10
  • Start at any number
  • Skip the first page (cover)
  • Correct placement on rotated and landscape pages

Tips

Reports with a cover

Tick "Skip first page" so the cover stays clean and numbering starts on page two.

Combining documents

Merge your PDFs first, then add page numbers so the whole document is numbered in order.

How to print

  1. Set your options above. The preview updates as you go.
  2. Click Download free PDF. The file is made on your device.
  3. Print at 100% / Actual size on the paper size you picked.

Frequently asked questions

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. Your files are opened and processed entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Nothing is uploaded, so it is safe for private documents and works even on slow connections.

Is it free? Are there limits?

Yes, it is free with no sign-up and no watermark. The only limit is your device memory, so very large files (hundreds of MB) may be slow.

Does it work with password-protected PDFs?

Not directly. If you know the password, remove it first with our free Unlock PDF tool, then use the unlocked copy here.
