Can I start numbering from a number other than 1?

Yes, set any starting number — useful when a document continues from another file.

What formats and number styles are available?

Formats: "1", "Page 1", "1 of N" and "- 1 -". Number styles: 1, 2, 3, lowercase roman (i, ii, iii) or uppercase roman (I, II, III).

Can I skip the cover page?

Yes, tick Skip the first page. It still counts toward the sequence, so the second page shows 2 (or the matching number if you set a different start).

Can I number only some pages?

Yes. Enter a range such as 2-10, 12 or 5- to number only those pages; leave it blank to number every page.

Can I change the font size, color or margin?

Yes — set the font size (4–72 pt), the text color, and the distance from the page edge. The font is Helvetica.

What about pages that are rotated?

Numbers are placed according to how each page is displayed, so "bottom center" stays at the visual bottom center even on pages with a 90°, 180° or 270° rotation.

Can I number an encrypted PDF, and is my file uploaded?

Password-protected PDFs can't be opened — remove the password first and the tool will tell you if a file is protected. Nothing is uploaded; numbering happens entirely in your browser.
