Add Page Numbers FAQ
How does Add Page Numbers compare to using Adobe Acrobat?
Acrobat wins on heavy professional editing; Add Page Numbers wins on speed, deterministic presets, and not needing a paid license for routine number operations.
Does Add Page Numbers run locally or upload to a server?
Local in your browser via WebAssembly whenever possible; the page tells you before processing if a server fallback is required for size or model reasons.
What's the typical PDF size limit?
Browsers practically cap a single PDF at 100-150MB. Larger files are better processed in chunks; split, edit, then merge if you must work in the browser.
Is the edit reversible?
Add Page Numbers keeps your source untouched; the edit lives in the output. To 'undo', delete the output and rerun with corrected settings.
Does Add Page Numbers embed fonts in the output?
Where the source supplies fonts, yes. If a font is missing in the source, viewers fall back to a substitute. Validate in the audience's actual reader.
