Features

Several Customization Options

Simpdf is loaded with multiple customization features to enhance the way users add page numbers to their PDF files. Starting from the margin size of the page numbers to optional custom text alongside the page numbers elevates user experience and makes Simpdf a feature-rich web application. Furthermore, it’s not important to fill all the input fields.

9 Positions For Page Numbers

Users can add page numbers anywhere on the PDF from the list of 9 position choices. It can be on the left, center, or right of the top, middle, or bottom of the page. This feature helps users to plan page numbers according to the content position in the PDFs.

Choose Where To Start Numbering

It’s not important for page numbering to begin from 1 every time. Simpdf gives its users a choice of where page numbers should start. However, the pagination value should be a positive integer, greater than 0.

Select What Pages To Be Numbered

It’s up to the users which pages should be numbered. This means that it’s not important that all pages should be numbered. If the users want to skip certain pages, they can tell Simpdf which pages to number. For example, give a range like 1-5 (to paginate the first 5 pages only), or 3,6,9,10 (to paginate these pages only). This is an optional feature and accepts any positive integer value, range, or a set of comma separated values.

Add Custom Text As Desired

Sometimes page numbers have certain text alongside them such as “Page 1”, “Final presentation- 1”, etc. These customized texts along with the page numbers make the documents more professional and Simpdf allows doing that with ease. While it’s a powerful and interesting feature, it’s still optional and it’s up to users if they want to add any custom text.

Superfast Process

It takes less than 1 minute to insert a page number in a PDF using Simpdf. Simpdf has powerful servers that page numbers a PDF no matter how many pages are in it. Heavy or bulk PDFs should not take more than 2 minutes in general.

FAQs

What is the color of the pagination on Simpdf and can it be customized?

When a user inserts a page number in a PDF online, they do not have the choice to select pagination colors. The system generates color automatically, which can be different in every PDF. Furthermore, different pages in the same PDF can have different page color numbers, which the computer generates.

How to add header and footer to PDF with Simpdf?

It’s possible to add page numbers to the header or footer location of the PDF. To do so, select the page number location on the topmost or bottom row, accordingly. Doing so will add page numbers to the header or footer location, respectively.

Can Simpdf change the existing pagination of a PDF file?

No! It’s impossible to change the page number in a PDF or change the existing pagination sequence of a PDF. However, Simpdf can allow users to add a new sequence of page numbers, which can act as an overriding sequence to the existing one.

Is it necessary to fill all the input fields on Simpdf to add pagination?

No! Users may opt out of giving input to the optional input fields. Mandatory fields include page number location and a starting number. Margins are medium by default. This helps users paginate their PDFs in a couple of seconds.

Why is pagination to a PDF so important?

Page numbers in a PDF are so important in the professional work culture and professional and formal documents, especially if there are too many pages. Pagination helps identify if the PDF has all the pages or not. Also, readers can navigate and bookmark important pages if it has page numbers in them. Pagination also helps make the documents more professional. By inserting page numbers in a PDF, users ensure that an index to the topics, chapters, or sections can be indexed later on.
