Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I position the page numbers on the PDF?
You can place page numbers at the bottom center, bottom left, bottom right, top center, top left, or top right of each page.
Can I start numbering from a page other than 1?
Yes — you can set any starting number, which is useful when your PDF is part of a larger document and needs to continue the page count from a previous section.
Can I skip numbering on the first page for a cover?
Yes — you can choose to exclude page numbers from the first page (or any specified number of initial pages) so a title or cover page remains unnumbered.
