- 4Press Add page numbers and download the stamped PDF.
Choose a 12-page guide, keep the defaults (bottom center, Page 1 of 12 format, starting at 1), and stamp it. The first page reads Page 1 of 12, the last reads Page 12 of 12, each centered half an inch from the bottom edge.
- Numbers are drawn in Helvetica in mid-grey; on very dark page backgrounds they may be hard to see.
- Existing printed page numbers in the document are not removed, so a document that already shows numbers will show both.
- If the front matter should stay unnumbered, extract it separately, number the rest starting at the right value, then merge the parts back together.
Yes. Set the first page's number to anything from 0 upward, handy when the PDF continues a larger printed document.
