## Private by design

Changes are made on your device, in memory. The original file is untouched and the new one is only created when you press the button.

## Good to know

Tick "Skip the first page" for a cover; numbering then starts counting from the second page.

## Questions

### Can I start at a number other than 1?

Yes. Set "Start at", for example 5 if this PDF continues another document.

### Can I number only some pages?

Not directly. Split the file, number the part you need, then merge again.
