Add Page Numbers
Stamp 'i / N' footers with font/position.
How to use
Drop PDFs into Add Page Numbers: set Position, press Run, and PaperFlux processes everything with pdf-lib and pdf.js engines loaded lazily on your device — progress bar and cancel included. You get an instant result plus one-click download; originals are never uploaded, so DevTools Network stays clean.
Steps
- Open the tool below (or scroll to the interactive Add Page Numbers).
- Set Position PDFs.
- Press Run (Ctrl+Enter) and watch the progress bar.
- Download the result, or copy and share the link.
FAQ
Is Add Page Numbers really free?
Yes — free with no signup, no credits and no limits on this tool. It is supported by clearly labeled ads placed away from the buttons, never by paywalls.
Do I have to upload my files to use Add Page Numbers?
No. Your files are read with the File API and processed with pdf-lib and pdf.js engines loaded lazily on your own device — there is no upload endpoint at all. Open DevTools, go to Network, and watch: your file never leaves the tab.
What should I enter in "Position"?
Put your position here — for example: bottom-center. Leave the defaults first to see how it works, then adjust. Every field is validated with a plain-language message if something is off.
I normally use iLovePDF — why switch?
If you are tired of upload queues, task limits, watermarks and accounts demanded for batch jobs, PaperFlux is the alternative: local pdf-lib operations with verified page counts — no queues, no watermarks, no uploads.
How accurate is Add Page Numbers?
Everything runs on your device, so results are instant and repeatable — same inputs, same outputs, no server involved.
