Frequently Asked Questions

Absolutely. Our tool preserves all original content including images, fonts, hyperlinks, and vector graphics. Numbers are added as non-destructive overlays without recompressing or altering existing elements.
2 What file sizes can this tool handle?
Since processing happens entirely in your browser, limits depend on your device's memory. Most users successfully process files up to 200 MB or documents with 1000+ pages without any issues.
3 Can I use different numbering styles for different sections?
Yes! You can apply roman numerals for front matter, standard numbers for main content, and even custom formats like "Page X of Y" for professional reports and academic papers.
4 Is my document secure when using this tool?
Complete security guaranteed. All processing is done locally in your browser. We don't upload, store, or transmit any files. Your documents never leave your device — they're automatically cleared when you close the tab.
