Loading your editor…

Sound familiar?

When you Google “Add PDF Header & Footer”…

  • Your private files on someone else’s server.

    You have to upload the whole file, even when you only need a small change.

  • Ads to watch. Credits to buy.

    You finish the steps, then find out you have to pay or watch an ad to get your file.

  • “This format isn’t supported.”

    You find a converter, but it cannot open the file you actually have.

  • Too many buttons. No clear next step.

    A complicated interface turns a simple file task into something you have to learn.

  • A bad result. Another search.

    The tool crashes or the result is wrong. Now you have to start again somewhere else.

Add a running header or footer to every page of a PDF without uploading the file.

Use short labels, automatic page numbers, or both — for example a document title in the header and “Page 3” in the footer — then download a stamped copy that stays on your device.

Looking specifically for page numbering? Try Add Page Numbers to PDF for the same controls with numbering-focused guidance.

How to add a PDF header or footer

  1. Drop your PDF into ConvertPeach.
  2. Enter optional prefix text, choose header or footer, and pick left, center, or right.
  3. Set font size and, if needed, expand margins so the stamp clears your content.
  4. Preview the sequence, then download the stamped PDF.

Why use ConvertPeach for headers and footers

Many desk tools bury running text behind print dialogs or desktop installs. ConvertPeach keeps header and footer stamping in the browser: free, private, and fast enough for everyday packets, handouts, and internal reviews.

Nothing leaves your machine. The stamp is an overlay applied with the same local PDF pipeline used across ConvertPeach tools.

When to add headers and footers

  • Numbering a multi-page brief so reviewers can cite pages
  • Marking drafts with “Internal” or a project name on every sheet
  • Standardizing handouts before a meeting or class
  • Adding a short footer when full Bates-style sequencing is more than you need

Placement and content

Choose header or footer and left, center, or right alignment — six positions. Leave the prefix blank for numbers only, or combine a label with the page number (for example “Confidential 1”).

Margins

Optionally increase margins so the stamp sits in new white space instead of covering existing text near the edge.

Overlay behavior

Headers and footers are stamped onto pages as overlay text. They do not rewrite the original content stream; they add a consistent running mark across the document.

Frequently asked questions

What can I put in a header or footer?

Any short text label plus an automatic page number, or numbers alone if you clear the prefix.

Where can I place the stamp?

Header or footer, aligned left, center, or right — six positions total.

How is this different from page numbers or Bates?

Page Numbers focuses on numbering alone. Bates Numbering is for legal-style sequential stamps across one or many files. Header & Footer is the general running-label tool that can include numbers when you want them.

Are my files uploaded?

No. Header and footer stamping runs entirely in your browser on ConvertPeach — free, with no account required.
