Add a Header or Footer to Every Page of a PDF
Stamp a consistent header or footer across every page of a PDF — your company name on the left, a title in the center, page numbers on the right. WT-PDF gives you three slots in each of the top and bottom margins, with page-number tokens and customizable color.
Open the editorHow it works
- Open wt-pdf.com and drop in the PDF.
- Click the H/F button in the toolbar.
- Fill in the left/center/right slots. Use
{page}and{total}for page numbers (e.g., "Page {page} of {total}"). - Choose Header or Footer, set size/margin/color, and Apply.
Page-number tokens
{page} expands to the current page number; {total} expands to the total page count. So "Page {page} of {total}" renders as "Page 3 of 27" on page 3.
Skip the first page
Cover pages usually shouldn't have a header. Toggle "Skip first page" to exclude page 1.
FAQ
Can I have different headers on different pages?
Currently the header/footer applies to all pages (optionally skipping the first). For per-section headers, split into multiple files, stamp each, then merge.
Can I use different fonts?
Current version uses Helvetica. Font family selection is coming in a future update.
Is this the same as adding a page number?
Page numbers are a simpler single-purpose tool with position/format options. Header/Footer gives you three slots per side for more flexible layouts.
