PDF Page Numbers

Key features

• Four number formats: 1, 1 / N, Page 1 of N and - 1 -.
• Six positions: bottom or top row, each with left, center and right alignment.
• A start-at number (1–999) for documents that continue another file.
• Skip first page leaves covers unnumbered, and a skipped page never consumes a number.
• Font size (8–36 pt) and edge margin (16–96 pt) sliders, drawn in a subtle dark gray.

Tips for better results

• 💡With Skip first page on and start at 1, page 2 becomes page 1 — handy after a cover sheet.
• 💡N counts only numbered pages, so Page 1 of 9 stays accurate even with a skipped cover.
• 💡Bottom center is the classic report layout; top right suits handouts.
