How to Add Headers and Footers to a PDF

Upload PDF
Drop the PDF you want to label onto the page.
Enter Header/Footer Text
Type the header and footer text, for example a report title or a “Confidential” note.
Insert Dynamic Fields
Turn on the page number to have each page numbered automatically.
Choose Font, Size, Position
The text is centered at the top and bottom of every page, sized to read cleanly.
Download PDF with Headers/Footers
Click the button and download your labeled document.

Headers and footers make a document look finished and keep context on every page — especially when pages are printed or shared separately.

A confidentiality or draft label in the footer protects you by making the document status visible on every single page.

Header	Centered text, top of every page
Footer	Centered text, bottom of every page
Dynamic	Optional automatic page number
Registration	Not required
Upload	None, processed on your device

All processing happens locally on your device. Nothing is uploaded to a server, stored, or tracked.

Can I have both a header and a footer?

Yes — enter either or both. Leave a field empty to skip it.

Can the page number be included automatically?

Yes. Turn on “Include page number” and each page gets its number added to the header or footer text.

Is the original file modified?

No. You download a new copy with the header and footer added; the original stays untouched.
