When to Number PDFs on Android

Adding reference numbers to a report before a meeting. Numbering a scanned multi-page document before sending to a client. Preparing a submission that requires numbered pages while away from your desk.

How to Add Page Numbers on Android

Open Chrome. Navigate to fixmypdf.in/tools/page-numbers. Tap "Choose File" and select your PDF. Choose position (bottom centre, bottom right, etc.), font size, and starting number from the touch-friendly controls. Tap "Add Page Numbers". Download.

Position Options on Android

Tap the position selector to choose: Bottom Left, Bottom Centre, Bottom Right, Top Left, Top Centre, or Top Right. Bottom Centre is the default for most professional documents. The preview updates to show where numbers will appear.

Custom Starting Number

If your document has a cover page that should be excluded from numbering, set the starting number to reflect the overall document count (e.g. the cover is page 1, so the first numbered page shows "2"), or skip numbering the cover by adjusting the page range.

Accessing PDFs from Google Drive on Android

In the file picker, switch to Google Drive view to access PDFs stored in Drive. After adding page numbers, download to your Android Downloads folder and optionally share back to Drive.

Sharing After Numbering

Tap the numbered PDF in the Files app. Use Share to send via Gmail, WhatsApp, Telegram, or Bluetooth. The numbered PDF is ready for submission or distribution immediately from your phone.

Privacy

All processing runs locally in Chrome. Your PDF never leaves your device. Works on Android 8+ with Chrome 80+.
