FAQ

Can I skip the cover or start from page 2?

Yes. Set the first page to 2 and choose the start number you need. The tool creates visible page numbers only for the selected page range.

Can I adjust page numbers after adding them?

Yes. Page numbers are first created as visible text objects, so you can move them and change font size, color, and opacity before export.

Are my files uploaded?

No. The PDF, password, page number settings, edits, and output stay in the current browser tab.
