Frequently asked questions
Can numbering start from a number other than 1?
Yes. Set "Start numbering at" to any number — useful when the PDF continues a printed document, so the first page can be numbered 25, for example.
What does the "Page X of Y" format look like?
Each page shows its number plus the total, such as "Page 3 of 12", instead of just "3".
Will the numbers cover my content?
Numbers are drawn in 10pt Helvetica with a 24pt margin from the page edge, where most documents have empty space.
