Your files never leave your device

Pick a position (bottom center, bottom right, top right) and a format — 1, 1 / 24, or Page 1 of 24 — and see it on a live render of your document. Start at any number, and skip the first page so your cover stays clean. The numbers go in as real, selectable text.

Bindery runs entirely in your browser — your file is never uploaded, so there is nothing to delete from a server afterwards.

How it works

  1. Drop your PDF and open Page numbers
  2. Choose position, format and starting number on the live preview
  3. Number every page and download

Questions people ask

Can I keep the cover page unnumbered?

Yes — toggle “Skip first page”; numbering continues correctly on page two.

Are the numbers images or real text?

Real text, drawn into the PDF — selectable, searchable, crisp at any zoom.

Is the document uploaded?

No — numbering runs entirely in your browser.
