How to how to add page numbers to a pdf

  1. 1. Decide the start number and whether page 1 is a cover.
  2. 2. Stamp locally and look at a crowded corner.
  3. 3. Check the last page’s number against your count.

Page numbers drawn into a PDF are part of the page, not a hint to the viewer. You choose the starting number and whether the first page is a cover that should stay blank. They will collide with a footer that is already there, so look at the corner on a busy page before you send a long packet. They do not repair a table of contents. If the contents say the budget is on page 4 and it is on page 7, fix the contents or the order; the stamp will only count what is in the file.
