In order to have an audit trail / track a document, I want to print the file name as a header or footer when printing the documents. How can this be done?

If this forum is still active, I am looking for help. I've tried all the above scripts and none of them modify the menue in Acrobat Standard 8.

I've saved them with a .js extension in the javascript folder for AS8.

Any help would be appreciated.

You can use the functions in a batch sequence.

I have been trying to find information for this and it seems like a tough one. I have 4000 pdf's that need to be printed with the filename in the header or footer.

I have tried using a script Reinhold posted a couple of years back and it works quite well, but only one file at a time. Can anyone help me on this?

Thanks! Will

Thank you for your assistance. I was wondering if there was anyway to update this script so that it would make a header instead of a footer.

Will this script run in version 9 for the Mac? i've depended on this script in version 8 for Windows, but I've just moved to the Mac and can't get it to run. Where should the .js file be located in a Mac so that it's available to all uses of the computer?

Many thanks
