How to Remove Page Numbers from a PDF

Remove existing page numbers from a PDF before re-numbering or merging. Free redact tool approach.

Removing page numbers is trickier than adding them because they are embedded in the page content. The FixMyPDF redact tool can cover them with a white box.

Method: Redact Over Page Numbers

Go to fixmypdf.in/tools/redact. Upload. Draw a white redaction box over the page number area on each page. Apply. This visually removes the page numbers.

Then Re-Add

After removing old numbers, use FixMyPDF page numbers to add new ones in the correct position and sequence.

When Merging Documents

If you are merging two PDFs with existing page numbers, remove the numbers from each first, then merge, then apply unified page numbers to the combined document.
