0 MBAdd Page Numbers to PDF — Free, 100% Private Browser Tool
Give every page of your document a clear number with this free online page numbering tool. Choose the position on the page (bottom or top, left, center or right), the format — plain "1", "Page 1", "Page 1 of N" or "- 1 -" — where numbering starts, whether to skip the cover page, plus the font size and margin. The numbered PDF downloads instantly, and everything is processed locally in your browser: no uploads, files up to 50 MB free, and a live progress counter while the pages are stamped.
Numbered pages make contracts, reports, theses and handouts easier to reference, print and assemble — and many submission portals require them. Because the numbers are embedded as real PDF text using a standard font, the result stays crisp at any zoom level and prints exactly as you see it.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I add page numbers to a PDF?
Select your PDF, pick a position and format, set the starting number if needed, then press Add Numbers. The numbered PDF downloads immediately.
Can I start numbering from a specific page or number?
Yes. Use "Start numbering at" to begin from any number, and tick "Skip the first page" to leave the cover unnumbered while still counting it.
Which positions and formats are available?
Six positions (bottom/top combined with left/center/right) and four formats: 1, Page 1, Page 1 of N, and - 1 -.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Page numbering runs entirely in your browser. Your PDF never leaves your device.
Is the tool free? What is the file size limit?
Yes — 100% free with unlimited use, supporting PDFs up to 50 MB per file.
