Frequently asked questions

Can I skip numbering on the first page?

Yes. Set the start offset to 2 and the first page will be left without a number, which is useful for cover pages.

Does the numbering support 'Page X of Y' format?

Yes. You can choose a format that includes both the current page number and the total page count.

Will existing page content be affected?

No. Page numbers are stamped on top of the existing content in the chosen corner. The original layout stays untouched.
