Add Page Numbers online — free and private

Add Page Numbers inserts clear, consistent page numbers into your PDF — essential for printed handouts, legal documents, theses and reports that people need to navigate and cite. Choose the corner or center position, the starting number, and a format like “1” or “Page 1 of 12”.

The numbering is stamped directly into the document in your browser. Nothing is uploaded, and your original file remains untouched.

Why use PDF10x to add page numbers?

Position it your way

Place numbers in the bottom or top, left, center or right — wherever your layout expects them.

Flexible formats

Plain numbers, or “Page N” and “Page N of Total” formats, with any starting number — handy when a cover page shouldn't count.

Clean, readable output

Numbers are set in a neutral font at a sensible size and margin, so they look native to the document.

Frequently asked questions

Can I start numbering from a number other than 1?

Yes. Set any starting number — useful when your document continues from another file or when the cover page shouldn't be counted.

Can I skip the first page?

Not yet in this version. A common workaround: extract page 1 with Extract Pages, number the rest, then merge them back together.

Will page numbers overlap my content?

Numbers are placed in the page margin area used by standard documents. For unusual full-bleed layouts, choose the corner position that has clear space.
