- Download the numbered PDF.
Frequently asked questions
Can I leave the cover page unnumbered?
Yes: check “Don’t number the first page”. Numbering then starts on the next page.
Can I start at a number other than 1?
Yes, enter the first number. Handy for an appendix that follows another document.
Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?
No. The numbers are added in your browser, and the document’s text stays selectable.
