How to Add, Reassign, and Customize PDF Footers

When working with PDFs, you may run into situations like these:

• Adding footers to a PDF while keeping the cover page footer-free.
• Reassigning page numbers in footers after merging multiple PDF files.
• Creating custom footers with page number formats such as "1/5".

No worries! Here's a simple way to handle all of them using Foxit PDF Editor.

• Open Foxit PDF Editor, go to the “Organize” tab → “Header & Footer” → “Add”.

• To set up your custom footer: Open the “Page number and date format”. Choose your preferred style, such as 1/n or Page 1 of n, then hit “Insert” to place it in your desired footer position.

• After inserting, you can check the real-time preview right away. Feel free to adjust the font, size, color and other styles as you like!

• You can also click the “Page Range Options” to apply footers starting from Page 2 — this way, your cover page will stay footer-free.

That’s all for today’s tips. Let this handy skill make study and teaching a breeze!
