Page Numbers: a practical guide

A document without page numbers is hard to cite, hard to print and hard to discuss in a meeting. This tool lets you put a number on every page in the exact style you need, whether it is a simple "1" in the footer or a centred "Page 3 of 12" in the header. Because the numbers are written as native PDF text, they stay crisp when you zoom in and they print clearly on any device.
