Numbering a document that was assembled
A submission stitched together from several sources has no continuous numbering, and every source restarts at one. Court filings, tenders and thesis appendices are usually required to be numbered throughout. A printed stack that gets dropped is unrecoverable without numbers on the pages.
Choose one of six positions, the number to start from, and a size between 6 and 48 points. Starting at something other than one is the setting that matters when the file is part of a larger bundle and the numbering has to continue from the previous section. The numbers are drawn into the page content, so they print and survive being copied or merged later, and the preview is close but approximate.
Every page gets a number: there is no page range and no way to skip a cover or a divider. The font is Helvetica, so it is digits only, with no total count alongside and no Roman numerals. If the cover must stay unnumbered, extract it first, number the rest, and merge the two back together.
