Can I start numbering from a custom number?

Yes. Set "Start from" to any number, e.g. start from 5 to account for a table of contents.

Can I skip numbering the first page (cover)?

Yes. Enable the "Skip first page" checkbox to leave the cover unnumbered.

What formats are supported?

"1, 2, 3", "Page 1 of 10" style, or "- 1 -" style. You can also add a custom prefix like "P.".

Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?

No. Everything runs in your browser. Your PDF is never sent to a server.

Can I change the font or use a custom font?

Currently uses Helvetica (built into the PDF standard). Custom fonts require the full pdf-lib font loading, which may be added in a future update.
