Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I place the page numbers?

You can place numbers at the top or bottom of each page, aligned to the left, center, or right. The most common position is bottom-center.

Can I customize the number format?

Yes. You can choose the format (e.g., "1", "Page 1", "1 of N", "- 1 -"), font size, and starting number. You can also add a prefix or suffix to the numbers.

Can I skip certain pages?

Yes. You can specify a starting page (e.g., skip the cover page) and optionally exclude specific page ranges from numbering.

Will the numbers overlap with existing content?

The numbers are placed in the page margin area. You can adjust the margin offset to ensure they don't overlap with your content. Preview the first page before applying to all.
