Why Use PDFFooter?

📝

Professional Branding

Add your company name, logo text, or confidential notice consistently on every page of your document.

🔢

Dynamic Page Numbers

Use {page} and {total} placeholders to auto-insert "Page 3 of 10" style numbering across all pages.

⚙️

Left, Center & Right Zones

Configure independent content in each zone — date on the left, title center, page number on the right.

🎯

Selective Page Application

Apply headers/footers to all pages, skip the cover page, or target a specific page range — your choice.

Frequently Asked Questions

You can add any text — document title, date, company name, page numbers, confidentiality notices, URLs, or custom messages. Each header and footer has three independent zones: left, center, and right.
Yes. PDFFooter lets you configure both simultaneously with independent text, font size, color, and positioning for the header and footer separately.
Yes. Use placeholders like {page} and {total} to automatically insert the current page number and total page count. For example, entering "Page {page} of {total}" produces "Page 3 of 10" on every page automatically.
Headers and footers are placed in the existing white margin space of your PDF. If your document has very narrow margins, use the margin offset setting to push the text further from the edge and avoid any overlap with body content.
Yes. You can apply to all pages, skip the first page (useful for title or cover pages), or specify a custom page range like pages 2 through 15.
Choose from common font families, set size from 6pt to 24pt, and apply bold or italic styling. Font color is fully configurable with a color picker.
No. It's a one-time payment of $1.29 per file. No subscription, no account required, no recurring charges. Pay once and download your PDF with headers and footers applied immediately.
