Use cases

What Add Header & Footer is good for

  • Private, sensitive documents

    Contracts, IDs, medical records and financial statements should not be uploaded to a stranger's server. With Add Header & Footer, they never leave your device.

  • Working offline or on the move

    On a plane, on a train, or behind a strict firewall — Add Header & Footer keeps working without a connection once loaded.

  • Quick, repeatable tasks

    No accounts, no installs, no daily limits. Open the page, get the job done, and close the tab.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is Add Header & Footer free to use?
Yes. Add Header & Footer is completely free, with no sign-up, watermarks, daily quotas, or file-size caps. You can process as many files as your device can handle.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Add Header & Footer runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Your documents never leave your device — there are no uploads, no servers, and nothing is stored or logged. That is what makes PDF-Atlas private by architecture.
Does Add Header & Footer work offline?
Yes. After the page has loaded once, the tool keeps working without an internet connection. You can also install PDF-Atlas as a desktop app or PWA for a fully offline experience.
Is my data safe?
Because all processing happens locally on your machine, your files are as safe as the device they sit on. Nothing is transmitted to PDF-Atlas or any third party.
