Our new Add Page Numbers to PDF tool stamps real page numbers onto every page of a PDF, using pdf-lib entirely in your browser — the same library behind our Merge PDF tool.
- Five position choices — bottom center, bottom right, bottom left, top center, or top right, so the numbers land wherever your document’s layout has room for them.
- A starting number you control — leave it at 1, or set it to continue from a previous document (say, 45) if this PDF is one section of a larger, multi-file report.
- Two formats — a bare number (“1, 2, 3…”) or the fuller “Page 1 of N”, which tells readers how many pages remain.
- Real vector text, not a rasterized page — pdf-lib embeds a standard font and draws each number directly into the page’s existing content. Nothing else on the page is re-rendered, re-compressed, or touched.
- Private by default — the file is read locally and processed in your browser tab; nothing you upload is ever sent to a server.
Pick your PDF, set the position and format, and download a numbered copy in seconds — no account, no upload, no watermark on the tool itself.
