Important
Check the result before relying on it
Keep an untouched copy of important source files. Browser processing depends on available device memory, and you should inspect every downloaded result before deleting the original.
Practical details
What this Lucaden tool does
Numbers are drawn with an embedded standard font at the top or bottom and aligned left, center, or right. You can begin at a custom number and limit numbering to selected pages.
The document stays in browser memory during processing. Lucaden creates a new output file and never modifies the source on your device.

Questions
About this tool
Does numbering change existing page labels?
It draws visible numbers; it does not rewrite logical page-label metadata.
Can the first page be skipped?
Yes. Select pages beginning at page 2 and choose the desired starting number.
