How to use it
- Choose a PDF.
- Pick a position and format, such as “Page {n} of {total}”, and the starting number.
- Optionally skip the first page (for a cover) and add header or footer text.
- Select Add page numbers and download the result.
Limits and known limitations
- Numbers and text use Helvetica, which supports Latin characters only.
- Text is added on top of existing content; if a page already has content in the margin, they may overlap. Increase the margin to avoid this.
