About Add Header & Footer

Adding headers and footers to a PDF places repeating text at the top or bottom of every page — useful for company names, document titles, page numbers, dates, or confidentiality notices.

🎯 Who Uses This

Legal firms add matter numbers and client names to document footers. Businesses add company name and date to report headers. Publishers add chapter titles and page numbers to book PDFs. Academic writers add thesis title and student ID to submission headers.

⚡ How It Works

Define separate header and footer text, choose alignment (left, center, right), set font size, and optionally include auto page numbering. Applied to all pages simultaneously. Output is immediately downloadable.

🔒 100% Private

Your files never leave your browser. No account required, no server uploads — just fast, local processing. This is what it means to add header and footer to PDF without uploading.

How to Use This Tool
