Add page numbers numbers every page of your PDF in one go, so long documents are easier to print, review and reference. Pick one of nine positions on a 3×3 grid (bottom center is the default), set the starting number, and choose a format: a plain number, or "Page 1 of N". You can also skip the first page, for example when it's a cover, and set the font size. The numbers are placed on top of the page, so choose a spot that doesn't collide with an existing footer. PDFEdit adds them in your browser and nothing is uploaded. Free, no sign-up, no watermark.

FAQ
Where can I put the page numbers?
In any of nine spots: top, middle or bottom row, each left, center or right. Bottom center is the default.
Can I start from a number other than 1?
Yes. Enter any start number. With "Page X of N", N is the number on the last page.
Can I leave the cover page unnumbered?
Yes. Tick Skip first page.
Will the numbers cover my content?
They're placed on top of the page where you put them. If a footer is already there, choose a different position or a smaller font size.
Is my PDF uploaded?
No. Page numbers are added in your browser.
