How to add page numbers after merging exhibits

After you combine exhibits into one PDF, stamp continuous Page X of Y so the packet paginates as a single filing—not restarting at 1 inside each exhibit.

What people are asking

Paralegals assembling exhibit sets; anyone who merged first and then needs footers.

Merged packets without continuous numbers confuse clerks. Number the whole thing once.

What Add page numbers to PDF actually does

  • Stamp Page X of Y (and similar) with drag-to-place on the merged file.

What it does not do

  • Merge files by itself—merge first in Merge PDF files.

Steps

  1. Merge exhibits with Merge PDF files.
  2. Open the combined file in Add page numbers to PDF.
  3. Choose Page X of Y; place; download.
