Adding page numbers to a completed PDF usually requires returning to the source document, updating the master template, and re-exporting. This PDF Page Numbering tool is built to inject pagination directly into the finished PDF without needing the original files.

Coordinate Injection

The utility doesn't alter the existing content; instead, it creates a new text overlay on every page. You can customize the positioning (top, bottom, left, right) and the starting index, and the script calculates the exact X/Y coordinates to stamp the numbers consistently across the entire document.

Browser-Based Speed

Running this operation server-side would require uploading the entire document, which takes time. Because this tool leverages a client-side PDF library, it processes hundred-page documents in milliseconds, offering a secure and instant workflow.
