About Add Page Numbers to PDF

Upload any PDF and add page numbers with full control over position, format, font, color, and margin. Choose from six positions (top or bottom, left, center, or right), five numbering formats (plain numbers, 'Page N', 'Page N of M', uppercase Roman numerals, or lowercase Roman numerals), and set a custom starting number. Adjust font size, font family, font color, and margin from the page edge. Optionally skip the first page (cover page) or last page. All processing uses pdfjs-dist for previews and pdf-lib for output — entirely browser-local, no upload required.
