FAQ
Common questions
Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?
No. The numbers are added in your browser and the file stays on your device.
How do the numbers work when I skip pages?
Numbers run consecutively across the pages you choose, starting from the first number you set. {total} is the last number used, so numbering pages 2 to 10 from 1 gives "of 9".
Do numbers appear upright on rotated pages?
Yes. Pages that are rotated for display get numbers drawn upright in the chosen corner of the page as you see it, and the page's crop area is respected.
Which fonts and characters are supported?
Numbers use the built-in Helvetica font, which covers Western European characters. Labels with other scripts are rejected with a message instead of producing broken text.
Can I undo the page numbers?
They become part of the page content, so they can't be removed automatically afterwards. Keep your original PDF and download the numbered version as a new file.
