How it works
- Drop a PDF that needs page numbers.
- Pick one of six positions (top or bottom × left, center, right) and a format: 1 · Page 1 · 1 of N · Page 1 of N · roman i or I.
- Set the starting number, font size (8–24), margin, and optionally skip the first page for cover sheets.
- Apply and download the numbered PDF.
What people use it for
- Numbering a merged PDF whose parts each had their own numbering — or none.
- Preparing a report or thesis with "Page X of Y" footers.
- Adding roman numerals to a front-matter section.
Good to know
- Numbers are stamped with the built-in Helvetica font in Latin digits and words — the "Page" label is not localized inside the PDF itself.
- Numbers are placed at a fixed margin; content that already fills the very edge of the page may sit close to the stamp — pick the opposite corner in that case.
Frequently asked questions
Can numbering start above 1?
Yes — set any starting number, useful when the document continues from another volume.
Can I leave the cover page unnumbered?
Yes, enable "skip first page": numbering then starts on page 2, and the count follows the format you chose.
Does the file leave my device?
No. The numbers are drawn by pdf-lib in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
