PDF Page Numberer

Un-numbered documents confuse readers. Legal filings require Bates numbering. Reports need page references.

Our tool numbers pages using PDF-lib. All processing happens in your browser. Zero servers involved.

• Position Control: Bottom center, top right, or corner choices.
• Format Flexibility: Use {n} for page and {total} for count.
• Custom Start: Begin numbering at any page number.
• Font Size: Adjust from 8px to 24px.
• Privacy First: PDF-lib runs entirely client-side.

Use "Page {n} of {total}" format for clarity. Readers see context immediately.

Start at 101 for book chapters. Legal documents often use specific ranges.

Unlock protected PDFs first. Our tool needs write access to pages.

Adding page numbers is typically one of the final steps in preparing a professional PDF document. Before numbering, make sure your document is fully assembled — use our PDF merger to combine all sections into a single file first, then apply page numbers across the whole document in one pass. If your document is too large to share, use our PDF compressor after numbering to reduce the file size without affecting the page number overlays. Our PDF splitter lets you extract numbered chapters or sections for individual distribution after the full document is numbered.

For PDFs built from image collections, our image to PDF converter compiles JPG, PNG, and WebP photos into a structured document ready for page numbering. Before building the PDF, prepare your images using our image resizer for consistent dimensions, our EXIF remover to strip metadata, and our AI background remover for clean product or portfolio images. Our PDF to image converter lets you export the final numbered pages as high-quality JPG or PNG files for use in presentations or web publishing.
