FAQ – Add Page Numbers to PDF

How can I start page numbering from a specific page in a PDF?

You can upload your file to the tool, choose the starting page, and the numbering will begin from that point—perfect if you want to skip a cover or title page.

Can I use a "Page X of Y" numbering format?

Yes. The tool allows you to add numbers in different formats, including "Page X of Y," which is helpful for long documents or reports.

Is it possible to skip certain pages when adding numbers?

Absolutely. You can exclude the first page, odd pages, or any range you don't want to display page numbers.

Can I change the font, size, or position of page numbers?

Yes. You can customize the font style, color, and position—top or bottom, left, center, or right—so the numbering matches your document design.

Will adding page numbers reduce PDF quality?

Most online services, including FILPDF, support standard PDF files up to a certain size (often 50–100 MB) to ensure fast processing.
