Add Page Numbers

Stamp sequential page numbers onto every page of your PDF in a position of your choice.

How to add page numbers

Stamp sequential page numbers across your PDF in a position of your choice — bottom center, bottom right, top corners, and more. Set your starting number, choose a format, and apply numbering to the entire document in one step.

This is especially useful for longer documents like reports, contracts, or manuscripts where page numbers help readers navigate and reference specific sections. It also matters for print submissions and legal documents, where numbered pages are often required. The rest of your document's layout and content stays exactly as it was — only the numbers are added.

Your file is encrypted in transit and deleted automatically within 12 hours. Free to use, with no account required.

Combining several documents first? Merge PDF them into one file, then add continuous page numbers here.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I start numbering at a number other than 1?

Yes. Set the start number — useful when covers or appendices come first.

Where can the page numbers go?

Bottom center, bottom left, or bottom right of each page.

Will adding numbers change my content?

No. Only the page numbers are added — your content stays untouched.
