Add Page Number in a PDF File (facades)

PdfFileStamp class allows you to add page numbers in a PDF file. In order to add page numbers, you first need to create object of PdfFileStamp class. If you want to show page number like “Page X of N” while X being the current page number and N the total number of pages in the PDF file then you first need to get the page count using getNumberOfpages property of PdfFileInfo class. In order to get the current page number you can use # sign in your text anywhere you like. You can format the page number text using FormattedText class. If you want to start the page numbering from a specific number then you can set setStartingNumber property. Once you’re ready to add page number in the file, you need to call addPageNumber method of PdfFileStamp class. Finally, save the output PDF file using Save method of PdfFileStamp class.

The following code snippet shows you how to add page number in a PDF file.

 public static void AddPageNumberInPdfFile() {
        // Create PdfFileStamp object
        PdfFileStamp fileStamp = new PdfFileStamp();

        // Open Document
        fileStamp.bindPdf(_dataDir + "sample.pdf");

        // Get total number of pages
        int totalPages = new PdfFileInfo(_dataDir + "sample.pdf").getNumberOfPages();

        // Create formatted text for page number
        FormattedText formattedText = new FormattedText("Page # of " + totalPages, java.awt.Color.WHITE,
                java.awt.Color.GRAY, FontStyle.TimesBoldItalic, EncodingType.Winansi, false, 12);

        // Set starting number for first page; you might want to start from 2 or more
        fileStamp.setStartingNumber(1);

        // Add page number
        fileStamp.addPageNumber(formattedText, (int) PageNumPosition.PosUpperRight.ordinal());

        // Save updated PDF file
        fileStamp.save(_dataDir + "AddPageNumber_out.pdf");

        // Close fileStamp
        fileStamp.close();
    }

Custom Numbering style

The PdfFileStamp class offers the feature to add Page Number information as stamp object inside PDF document. Prior to this release, the class only supported 1,2,3,4 as page numbering style. However, there has been a requirement from some customers to use custom numbering style when placing page number stamp inside PDF document. In order to accomplish this requirement, NumberingStyle property has been introduced, which accepts the values from NumberingStyle enumeration. Specified below are values offered in this enumeration.

 public static void AddCustomPageNumberInPdfFile() {
        // Create PdfFileStamp object
        PdfFileStamp fileStamp = new PdfFileStamp();

        // Open Document
        fileStamp.bindPdf(_dataDir + "sample.pdf");

        // Get total number of pages
        int totalPages = new PdfFileInfo(_dataDir + "sample.pdf").getNumberOfPages();

        // Create formatted text for page number
        FormattedText formattedText = new FormattedText("Page # of " + totalPages, java.awt.Color.WHITE,
                java.awt.Color.GRAY, FontStyle.TimesBoldItalic, EncodingType.Winansi, false, 12);

        // Specify numbering style as Numerals Roman UpperCase
        fileStamp.setNumberingStyle(NumberingStyle.NumeralsRomanUppercase);

        // Set starting number for first page; you might want to start from 2 or more
        fileStamp.setStartingNumber(1);

        // Add page number
        fileStamp.addPageNumber(formattedText, PageNumPosition.PosUpperRight.ordinal());

        // Save updated PDF file
        fileStamp.save(_dataDir + "AddPageNumber_out.pdf");

        // Close fileStamp
        fileStamp.close();
    }
