Add PDF page numbers
Add a consistent sequence of page numbers to a PDF for assignments, notes or customer handouts. Choose the starting number, optional prefix or suffix and placement, then check pages with dense content near the edges. A small test prevents a number from covering an existing footer, page border or form field before you print the final document.
Choose your files and review the settings.
Keep originals and inspect the result before printing. File changes clear previous downloads. Heavy image and OCR work can take longer on a phone.
Using Add PDF page numbers
- Choose a PDF.
- Set the starting number, prefix or suffix and page position.
- Create the numbered copy and check the first and final pages.
Behind the result
A text number is drawn onto each page and incremented in PDF page order. Font size and positioning are applied consistently to the new page-number layer.
Free tools for everyday work
Book centers, photocopy shops, freelancers and developers can use this workspace without a paid plan or account. Files are processed locally. Prepare website resources from offline setup before disconnecting; Urdu/OCR also needs the separate pack above.
The Windows app currently includes the original four tools. These new Book Center tools are available on the website; app and extension updates will be separate releases.
Answers and practical details
Existing page numbering
If the source already has page numbers, the new numbers are additional visible text. Remove or redesign the original numbering in its source document when necessary.
Price and account requirements
This website tool is 100% free. No login, subscription or paid conversion tier is required. Your device supplies the processing memory.
Files and privacy
Input documents and generated results are handled locally. They are not sent to a QBMFX conversion API or stored in a customer database. Website hosting and advertising can still make separate network requests.
Offline preparation
Prepare the website resources from Help while connected, then test the required tool offline. OCR and Urdu text tools also need their optional language or font resources prepared first. Browser storage can be removed by the browser or by you.
Windows app and Edge extension
The existing installed app and extension contain the original four PDF tools. These new Book Center tools belong to the website release; they will need a separate installed-package update.
