How to use Add slide numbers: step by step
- Open the Add slide numbers tool at https://www.mediaextractr.com/tools/add-slide-numbers. Confirm that your source file type matches the tool description.
- Prepare a copy of the original and choose the relevant input file or text. For multi-file operations, check order and naming before continuing.
- Apply the available options for add slide numbers. Use settings that match the final destination rather than choosing the smallest or highest setting automatically.
- Run the operation and save the result. If the tool reports an unsupported file, verify the input type before trying another format.
- Open the output independently and verify its content, file extension, and any important structural details.
Try a small test before processing your full file

Mistakes and limitations to watch for
- Check slides individually after modifying a deck.
- Review notes and hidden content before publishing.
- Keep a backup of images and embedded media.
- Review the result rather than assuming that a successful export means every detail was preserved.
