Add page numbers to a PDF
Page numbers make long documents easy to navigate, cite and print — essential for reports, contracts, manuscripts and study material. Add Page Numbers places clean, consistent numbers on every page of your PDF exactly where you want them.
Choose the position (for example bottom-centre or top-right), the starting number, and the format, so the numbering matches the rest of your document.
Simple, free and private
The numbers are written directly into the PDF in your browser — nothing is uploaded, and there is no watermark or sign-up. You can start numbering from any value, which is handy when your file is one section of a larger document.
For a more finished look, add a Watermark or reorder pages first with Organize PDF.
