How to Add Page Numbers to a PDF File
Organize large documents and contracts by automatically stamping sequential page numbers in the footer.
Essential for Long Documents
If you've combined multiple PDFs together or received a raw scan of a massive contract, it likely lacks page numbers. Submitting unnumbered documents to courts, universities, or publishers is often rejected.
Adding Pagination
Tuko makes pagination effortless. Upload your document, select the position (e.g., Bottom Center, Bottom Right), and choose a format like `Page 1 of 10` or simply `1`. The tool calculates the total pages and stamps them perfectly aligned on every sheet.
