A stack of unnumbered pages is a gamble. Print it, drop it, and the order is gone; reference 'page 14' in a meeting and everyone counts from a different sheet. Reports, court filings, theses and anything headed for a binder need numbers on the pages — and PDFs assembled from several sources almost never have them. DollarFix PDF adds them to the footer of every page in a few clicks.
You choose where and how. The number sits at the bottom of the page — left, centre or right, whichever your layout or your style guide demands. The format is yours too: a bare '1', a '1 / N' that shows the total, or the spelled-out 'Page 1'. And the count doesn't have to start at one: set a custom start number when the document continues from another volume, or when a title page means the real content begins at page 3.
The numbering happens inside your browser, on your machine. The PDF is not uploaded to a server, queued behind other people's files or retained anywhere — it simply never leaves your device. That makes the tool as appropriate for a draft contract or a set of exhibits as it is for a school assignment, and it is also why there is no progress bar: with no upload, a 300-page document numbers about as fast as a 3-page one.
Numbering, previewing and re-doing it in a different corner are all free. A single $1 payment unlocks the download of the finished file — no subscription is created, no account is required, and there are no daily caps or size limits. If the same document also needs a DRAFT stamp, the watermark tool sits in the same editor, so both marks go on in one session and one download.
