Documentation

The PDF page renumbering tool resets page labels locally in your browser. It is useful for scans, contracts, reports, bid files, front matter, tables of contents, and archived PDFs. Files are not uploaded by the tool, and the generated PDF can be downloaded directly.

Key Features

  • Upload one PDF and read its page count locally.
  • Renumber pages by rule-based ranges, including single pages, ranges, open-ended ranges, and reverse ranges.
  • Use Arabic numbers, lowercase Roman numerals, or uppercase Roman numerals.
  • Set the start number, prefix, and suffix for each rule.
  • Adjust header or footer position, font size, margin, color, and opacity.
  • Skip unmatched pages or draw their physical page numbers.
  • Preview the page label plan before generating the final PDF.

Rule Format

Use one rule per line:

page range|start number|style|prefix|suffix

Range examples: 1-4, 5-, -3, 8,10-12. Styles are arabic, roman-lower, and roman-upper.

Steps

  1. Upload the PDF you want to renumber.
  2. Enter segmented page numbering rules.
  3. Set position, font size, margin, opacity, and color.
  4. Review the renumbering plan.
  5. Generate the PDF and download the result.

Use Cases

  • Use Roman numerals for prefaces or tables of contents, then restart body pages at 1.
  • Fix scanned PDFs with inconsistent original page numbers.
  • Standardize footer numbers for contracts, reports, and bids.
  • Prepare archived PDFs for search, review, and print checking.

Privacy

The tool reads the PDF, draws page labels, and creates the output file locally in your browser. It does not actively upload PDFs to a server.
