Add Page Numbers
Automatically number all pages in your PDF
Add page numbers to a PDF
Long documents without page numbers are hard to navigate, cite and discuss — try telling someone to 'look near the middle' of a 90-page report. Add Page Numbers stamps clear, consistent numbering onto every page of your PDF, so contracts, manuals, dissertations and reports become easy to reference and print in order.
Numbered pages also make a document look finished and professional, and they are often a formal requirement for legal filings and academic submissions.
How to add page numbers
Upload your PDF, and the tool adds sequential page numbers across the document, which you can then download. The numbers are written into the file itself, so they stay in place wherever the PDF is opened or printed.

Numbering is applied locally on your device. Your document is never uploaded or stored, keeping it private.
