Privacy and browser processing
ToolBoxly is designed so supported processing happens in your browser. Your selected files do not need to be uploaded to a ToolBoxly processing server. Browser capabilities, device memory and file type can affect results, so review important files before replacing originals.
Practical ways to use Add Page Numbers to PDF
PDF files are the default format for contracts, invoices, forms and scanned documents, but editing them usually means paying for desktop software you'll only use occasionally. Page numbers are drawn on top of the existing page content, so double-check a page that already has a number or footer to avoid overlap. Everything above runs locally in your browser tab — the file you choose is not uploaded to a ToolBoxly server before you download the result, so there is nothing to wait on beyond your own device's processing speed. If you plan to use the result somewhere else — a client deliverable, an app store listing, a printed page — keep a copy of your original file and double-check the output against that destination's specific requirements before you rely on it.
