How to Add Page Numbers to PDF
Pagination is essential for legal contracts, thesis papers, and professional reports. Here is how to do it instantly without expensive software.
Adding page numbers to a PDF should be simple. Yet, most people think they need to convert the file back to Word, add numbers, and re-save it. This ruins the formatting.
With PDFTeq's Client-Side Engine, you can stamp page numbers directly onto the existing file layers.
Step-by-Step Guide
- Upload your Document: Go to the Page Number Tool and select your PDF.
- Choose Position: Select where you want the numbers to appear (e.g., Bottom Center for standard footers, Top Right for academic papers).
- Process & Download: Click the button. Our JavaScript engine calculates the total pages (e.g., "1 of 12") and stamps them instantly.
Why is this secure?
Most online tools upload your document to a remote server to process it. PDFTeq is different. We use your computer's own processor (CPU) to draw the text onto the PDF. Your confidential documents never leave your browser.
