Frequently asked questions
Can I skip the cover page?
Start numbering at page 2 or set an offset so front matter stays unnumbered while body pages begin at 1.
Roman numerals for front matter?
Use format options where available, or number sections separately after Split PDF.
Will numbers overwrite content?
Place numbers in margins. Dense full-bleed designs may need Crop PDF or Resize PDF first.
Headers and footers too?
Use Header & Footer for running titles; Page Numbers focuses on the page index stamp.
Free for long books?
Yes. Very large files are limited only by browser memory.
