How to use
Add page numbers to PDF pages. Choose your file or enter the requested content, select options, then run the tool and download the result.
Choose a numbering convention
Page numbering can start at the first page or begin after a cover, title page or contents section. Decide whether the visible number should match the PDF viewer's page position or a printed document convention. If front matter uses Roman numerals or a later section restarts at page 1, check the intended sequence before applying numbers.
Check placement and sequence
- Preview the first numbered page and the final page.
- Check that numbers do not overlap existing footers or page content.
- Inspect pages with different orientations or margins.
- Keep a copy of the original PDF until the result is approved.
Visible page numbers do not necessarily change the PDF's internal page labels, bookmarks or table of contents. Verify any recipient-specific formatting requirements before submitting the file.

Frequently asked questions
Are my files uploaded?
No. File processing runs in your browser; the selected file is not sent to a Tolvix processing server.
Will all features be preserved?
Not always. Browser-based conversion may not preserve every annotation, form, font or advanced document feature.
