Six positions

Start anywhere

Start from any number, skip the cover page, or number only the pages you choose.

Many files

Each file is numbered on its own, and you download them together as a ZIP.

Real text

Numbers are text in the page, so they can be searched and copied.

Frequently asked questions

How do I add page numbers to a PDF?

Drop your PDF, pick a position and a format, then select Number and Download.

Can I write the numbers in my language?

Yes. Choose Custom and type the text with 1 where the number goes, for example "Strana 1 z N". Arabic, Hebrew, Chinese, Japanese and other scripts work too.

Can I leave out the first page?

Yes. Turn on Skip first and counting starts on the second page.

Are my files uploaded?

No. The files are numbered in your browser and never leave your device.

Technical details

Processing

The numbers are written into each page in a background worker in your browser. Text is shaped with HarfBuzz and set in Noto fonts, fetched only for the scripts you use.

Placement

Positions follow the page as it is shown, so turned and cropped pages get their number upright at the edge you chose.

What stays

Pages, links, bookmarks and form fields stay as they were. The page count does not change.
