Guide and details
How it works

- Check settings and pages.
- Create the PDF and download the checked result.
Features and controls
Choose one of six top or bottom positions. Advanced settings include starting number, font size, color, edge margin and formats 1, Page 1 or 1 / 10. Numbers follow original page positions even with a selection. Skipping the first page starts the second at the starting number. The total in fraction format takes the starting number into account.
Processing and limits
Your PDF stays entirely on your device. Scripts, automatic actions and attachments are sanitized. Every output is checked again for prohibited active content before download. Encrypted PDFs are rejected with an explanation. Editing removes digital signatures; they do not remain valid unchanged.
Up to 100 MB and 2,000 pages, or 50 MB on smaller devices. Previews are limited for large files. Browsers may reach their memory limits earlier. Page sizes and existing rotations are preserved. Rebuilding pages does not preserve form fields or bookmarks.
