Frequently asked questions

Which format should I choose?

Plain numbers keep pages clean for internal documents. Formats that include the total are friendlier for documents that get printed and reordered, since each page states the count.

Can I start numbering from something other than 1?

Yes — set the starting number to any value. Useful when numbering a chapter that continues from a previous file.

Will page numbers appear on the cover page?

Yes, every page is numbered. If you want to skip a cover, split the PDF, number the body, then merge the cover back — our PDF merge and split tools cover both steps.

Is the file uploaded?

No. The PDF is loaded, modified and saved in your browser only.
