Can I start numbering from a page other than the first?

Yes. You can set any starting page for the numbering sequence and define which pages are excluded. For example, skip the cover and table of contents, then begin numbering from page three onward.

Will the page numbers overlap existing content?

No. Numbers are placed in the margin area of the page. You can adjust the margin offset to ensure nothing overlaps with your existing text or images.

Can I use Roman numerals for the introduction and Arabic numbers for the main body?

Yes. The Pro version allows different numbering formats for different page ranges within the same document, which is standard practice in academic and book publishing.

Is there a file size limit?

Files up to 100 MB are supported on the free plan. The premium plan offers larger limits and priority processing for high-volume use.

Are my documents kept private?

Absolutely. Files are processed over an encrypted connection and deleted from our servers automatically. We never access or share your document content.

Does this work on mobile devices?

Yes. The tool is fully responsive and works in any modern mobile browser without any app download.
