Useful details
Can numbering skip a cover page and use a custom format?
Yes. Exclude the cover, set the starting counter and selected range, then use {n}, {p}, {r} and {rf} for the current counter, document pages, selected pages and final counter. The excluded cover does not advance numbering.
Are my documents uploaded?
No. Document processing happens in your browser. Files, passwords, signatures, and editing history are not uploaded or stored by Paperlight. The public site uses Vercel Web Analytics for page-view statistics.
