How to Add Page Numbers to PDFs Using C#

In this comprehensive tutorial, learn how to add page numbers to PDFs using the IronPDF library in a C#.NET application. Begin by ensuring the IronPDF NuGet package is installed in your project. Start by importing the IronPDF namespace and setting the license key. Create a text header and an HTML footer to display page numbers on each page. Use the Chrome PDF renderer to render HTML content into a PDF and add the headers and footers to ensure page numbers are displayed. Save the PDF with the 'Save As' method.

The tutorial also covers adding page numbers to specific pages. Define a multi-page HTML string to create a multi-page PDF. Use the Enumerable.Range method to generate page indices and apply headers to even, odd, or specific pages, such as the first or last page. You can also skip adding headers to certain pages and start numbering from a specific page. This method offers flexibility in managing page numbers in PDF documents.
