Frequently Asked Questions

Can I add page numbers to a PDF for free?

Yes, completely free. No signup or account needed. Upload your PDF, customise the numbering style, and download the result instantly.

Can I skip the first page when adding page numbers?

Yes. Use the "Start numbering from page" option to skip cover pages or title pages. For example, set it to page 2 to leave the first page unnumbered while starting the count from page 1 on the second page.

Can I choose where the page numbers appear?

Yes. You can place page numbers at the top or bottom of the page, and align them to the left, centre, or right. You can also customise the font, size, and colour.

Will adding page numbers change the rest of my PDF?

No. Only the page number is added — all existing content, images, formatting, and layout remain completely unchanged.
