How to Add Page Numbers to a PDF

1. Upload your PDF document.
2. Choose the page-number format and position.
3. Set the starting page if needed.
4. Customize the available font and size options.
5. Generate and download your numbered PDF.

Add Page Numbers to PDF With Page X of Y

The Page X of Y format displays both the current page number and the total number of pages. For example, a ten-page document can display Page 1 of 10, Page 2 of 10, and so on.

This format is useful for business reports, legal documents, manuals, proposals, ebooks, academic papers, and other documents where readers need to know their position within the complete PDF.

Add Page Numbers to Specific PDF Pages

Some documents contain a cover page, title page, table of contents, or other introductory material that should not display a page number. Use the available starting-page option to begin numbering where your document content starts.

Choose Where PDF Page Numbers Appear

Position page numbers where they are easiest to read without interfering with the document content. Depending on the available options, you can place page numbers in the top or bottom area and align them to the left, center, or right.

Customize PDF Page Number Style

The available styling options let you adjust the appearance of page numbers to match your document. Supported options can include font selection and font size, allowing you to create page numbers that remain readable while fitting naturally into the page layout.

PDF Page Numbers vs. Page Counter

A PDF page counter tells you how many pages are contained in a document. Adding page numbers actually inserts visible numbering into the PDF pages so readers can identify and reference individual pages.
