About Header & Footer
Header & Footer adds a line of text centred at the top and/or bottom of every page of a PDF — a company name, document title, "Confidential", a version number or a date. It is the quickest way to give every page of a report or proposal a consistent label.
Text in English, Gujarati and Hindi is supported. If a header is longer than the page is wide, it is made smaller automatically so it always fits.
How to use Header & Footer
- Upload your PDF.
- Type the header text, the footer text, or both.
- Press the button and download the PDF with your header and footer on every page.

Tips and common problems

- If your pages already have text at the very top or bottom, check the result for overlap.
- Need page numbers too? Run Add Page Numbers after adding the header and footer.
