FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Where can page numbers be placed?

You can place page numbers at the bottom-centre, bottom-right, bottom-left, top-centre, top-right, or top-left of each page.

Can I start page numbering from a number other than 1?

Yes. Set the 'Start from' value to any number. For example, set it to 5 to start numbering from page 5.

What page number formats are available?

You can use 'Page {n} of {total}', '{n}', or 'Page {n}' formats.

Can I add Roman numerals?

Not currently. Arabic numerals only are supported.

Will page numbers overlap with existing content?

Page numbers are added in the margin area. If your PDF has very small margins, there may be slight overlap. We recommend checking the output.
