What is PDF Page Labels?

PDF page labels define how page numbers appear to readers — independent of the physical page order. For example, a book's front matter (table of contents, preface) can use lowercase Roman numerals (i, ii, iii) while the main content uses decimal numbers starting from 1. This tool sets the logical page numbering metadata without modifying any page content.

Supports prefix + number styles: decimal, lowercase/uppercase Roman, and lowercase/uppercase alphabetic. Apply to all pages or a specific range like 1-5,10-z.

FAQ

What are page labels used for?
PDF viewers display them in the page navigator. Books often use Roman numerals for front matter and decimal for main content — all in one PDF.
Does this change the actual page order?
No. Page labels are metadata only — they do not reorder, add, or remove pages. They only affect how page numbers are displayed.
What numbering styles are supported?
Decimal (1,2,3), lowercase Roman (i,ii,iii), uppercase Roman (I,II,III), lowercase alphabetic (a,b,c), and uppercase alphabetic (A,B,C).
