How it works
- Choose a PDF file.
- Fill in the fields you need; use {page}, {pages}, {date} and {file} as placeholders.
- Set font size, margin and colour, then click “Add header and footer”.
Notes and limitations
- Placeholders: {page} = page number, {pages} = number of pages, {date} = today’s date, {file} = file name.
- Text is placed upright even on rotated pages. The standard font supports Latin characters including accents.
- Existing content is not moved; choose a margin that does not overlap with the text of your document.
