Edit existing PDF's pages in Python

I have a PDF file which I removed some pages from it. I want to fix the new pdf page numbers. Is there any way/library to update the page numbers without converting the pdf to another format? I have tried to convert the pdf to text, XML, and Json and then fix the page number. However, if I convert it back to pdf, it looks messy(cannot keep the style of the original pdf). The problem I have are:

  1. Remove the old page number
  2. Add a new page number.

I am using python on Ubuntu. I have tried ReportLab, PyX, and pyfpdf.
