Frequently asked questions
Is PDF Page Counter free to use?
Yes. PDF Page Counter is completely free with no account, no trial and no usage cap. Every feature on this page is available on the first visit.
Does PDF Page Counter upload your PDF to a server?
No. PDF Page Counter processes your PDF inside your browser, so it never reaches a DocTools server. That also means the tool keeps working if your connection drops mid-task.
Is there a file size limit?
The practical ceiling is your device's available memory rather than a server quota. Files up to roughly 100 MB work comfortably on a typical laptop in PDF Page Counter.
Do I need to install anything to use PDF Page Counter?
No installation is needed. PDF Page Counter runs in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, on desktop and on mobile, with no extension or plugin.
Can I use PDF Page Counter on a phone or tablet?
Yes. The PDF Page Counter interface adapts to small screens and supports touch input, though very large jobs are faster on a desktop browser.
What happens to your PDF when I close the tab?
It is discarded. PDF Page Counter keeps everything in temporary browser memory, so closing the tab removes every trace of the session.
