About this tool
Court filings, tender submissions, thesis appendices and audit packs are almost always assembled from separate PDFs, and almost always have to arrive as one numbered document. Numbering by hand in a PDF editor is slow and easy to get wrong, especially when a file is added late and everything after it shifts. Doing both steps together solves that: the documents are joined first, then numbering is applied across the combined page count so the sequence is continuous from cover to final page. You can choose the position of the stamp and the starting number, which is useful when a cover sheet should stay unnumbered or when the bundle continues from an earlier volume. Processing is local to your browser, so confidential bundles stay private.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I start numbering at a page other than one?
+
Yes. Set the starting number so a cover page or a continuing volume gets the sequence you need.
Where do the numbers appear?
+
You choose the corner or centre position, and the number is stamped in a clean, readable size on every page.
Can I number a PDF without merging anything?
+
Yes. Add a single file and the tool simply numbers it.
