Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about the Add Page Numbers to PDF.

Can I skip numbering the cover page?

Yes. Turn on “Skip first page” — the cover stays clean and numbering starts on the second page.

Can numbering start from a number other than 1?

Yes. Set any starting number, which is handy when your PDF is one chapter of a longer document.

Are my files uploaded?

No. The page numbers are drawn into the PDF inside your browser; nothing is sent to a server.
