Frequently asked questions
Can I start numbering from something other than 1? ›
Yes, set any starting number before generating the document.
Where can the page number be placed? ›
Choose from the common corner positions or bottom-center.
Is the PDF uploaded to add page numbers? ›
No, page numbers are drawn locally using a client-side PDF library.
Troubleshooting
Why is the page number missing or overlapping other content? ›
On pages with dense edge-to-edge content, try a corner position with more empty margin, or a smaller font size.
Why can’t I add page numbers to my PDF? ›
Encrypted PDFs can’t be modified locally without the password — remove protection first and try again.
