Stamp page numbers onto every page. Everything runs locally in your browser — your files are never uploaded to a server, no registration is required, and the tool is completely free.
How to Add Page Numbers
Upload the PDF that needs page numbers — a report, thesis, contract, or merged document.
Review the document preview to confirm you selected the right file.
Click the process button and the tool stamps a "Page X of Y" label at the bottom of every page, locally in your browser.
Download the numbered PDF immediately; the layout and quality of your pages stay untouched.
Features
Automatic "Page X of Y" Numbering: Every page receives a clear label with both its own number and the total page count, so readers always know where they are in the document.
Clean, Unobtrusive Placement: Numbers are stamped in a small, neutral font at the bottom center of each page, away from your content and margins.
Perfect After Merging: Combine files with the Merge tool first, then number the result so the final document reads as one continuous, professional piece.
No Quality Loss: Numbers are added as real vector text with pdf-lib — pages are not rasterized, so existing text stays selectable and print-sharp.
Frequently asked questions
Where are the page numbers placed?
At the bottom center of every page, in a small Helvetica font that stays clear of typical body content and works for both portrait and landscape pages.
What format do the numbers use?
Each page is stamped with "Page X of Y", where Y is the total number of pages — the format most commonly required for reports and legal documents.
Will numbering change my document’s layout or quality?
No. The tool draws lightweight vector text on top of the existing pages without re-rendering them, so fonts, images, and formatting are untouched.
Can I number a document I just merged from several files?
Yes — that is the most popular use. Merge your PDFs first, then run the combined file through this tool to get continuous numbering across all of them.
Is my file kept private?
Yes. Numbering happens entirely in your browser. Your document is never uploaded to a server, and closing the tab clears everything.
