Add Page Numbers to PDF
Add page numbers to a PDF with position, prefix, and starting number options.
About this add page numbers to pdf
This tool adds page numbers to a PDF, with control over their position, an optional prefix, and the starting number. It writes the numbers onto each page so a finished document — a report, packet, or print file — is easy to navigate and reference.
Small choices keep the result tidy: bottom-centre suits most reports, a prefix like Page adds context where a footer needs it, and a custom start number helps when the PDF is one part of a larger set. The numbers are added to a downloadable copy, leaving the source unchanged.
Common uses
