Frequently asked questions
Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?
No. The file is opened, edited and saved entirely in your browser, so it never leaves your device.
Can I start numbering from a different page?
Yes. Switch to “Selected pages” and enter a range such as 3-20, then set the starting number you want printed on the first of those pages.
Will the numbers cover my content?
The number is drawn in the page margin, about 28 points from the edge. If your layout uses very small margins, try the opposite position or a smaller font size.
Can I remove page numbers later?
The numbers become part of the page content, so keep your original file if you might need an unnumbered version.
