Add page numbers to any PDF in seconds

Add Page Numbers stamps clean, consistent numbering onto every page of your PDF — choose the position (top or bottom, left, center or right), the format (1 · Page 1 · 1/N) and the starting number. It's the finishing touch that makes reports navigable, legal bundles citable and print jobs collate-proof, applied in seconds without desktop software.

Numbering that matches how documents are actually used

Merged documents almost never carry continuous numbering, and printed unnumbered pages are a shuffling accident away from chaos. Whether you need "Page 3" in a footer or "7/45" for a legal exhibit, this free tool applies it uniformly — processed in your browser, no account needed.

Add Page Numbers — frequently asked questions

Can I start from a specific number?

Yes, set any starting number and format.

How do I add page numbers starting from a specific page?

Set the starting number you need — for instance start at 45 to continue from a previous volume — and the count proceeds from there.

Can I place numbers at the bottom center?

Yes — bottom-center is one of six position presets, and the most common choice for reports.

Will numbers overlap my content?

Numbers sit in the margin area; pick top or bottom placement based on where your pages have clear space.
