Add Ruler guides tthat show on every page of document

While copy and pasting to every page is feasible for some, my 514 pages just didn't allow for that.  However, I was able to set my Art Boxes in place of guidelines to fulfill the same need.  Go to All Tools>Print Production>Set Page Boxes.  Be sure to apply to all pages.  If you don't see the red boxes on your document, then go to Preferences>Page Display and under Page Content and Information, check the box labeled "Show art, trim & bleed boxes."   Not sure if these features are available in all versions of Acrobat, but they are available in Pro.

It used to be possible in Acrobat 7, but not since... Maybe Adobe should start paying attention to the few good things they did have in their apps.

The only way of doing something like that is with a script, that will add Line comments as guides in the desired intervals and set them as read-only so they can't be moved accidentally. It's not ideal, but it should work.

You cannot place a guide on all the pages of a document with Acrobat.

On the other hand, you can copy an element and paste it exactly at the same position on all the pages since Acrobat uses "Paste in place" by default.
