Frequently asked questions

Can I start numbering from a number other than 1?

Yes. Change First number. For example, start at 5 if the file continues from another document.

Will it cover text on my pages?

The number sits near the edge of the page, about 28 points from it. If a page has text very close to the edge, choose a different position.

Is my file uploaded?

No. The numbers are added in your browser and the file never leaves your device.
