I'm having an issue that I can't find a simple solution for. Hopefully, someone here can help me figure out how to do it.

 

I have 50+ pdfs that need to get a separate identification so that they can be distinguished from each other for example:

 

Pdf 1 gets a header saying Appendix A

Pdf 2 gets a header saying Appendix B

....

Pdf 40 gets a header saying AL

etc...

 

Is there a solution for this integrated in Adobe Pro or do I need to write a JavaScript to handle it? If there's a need for a script, is someone able to point me in the right direction for a guide on how to do it?

Yes, this requires a custom JavaScript development.

The only way is using a script. You need to code the logic as to which header to add to each file, or use some kind of external data source (like a text file) where the file names are listed along with the header text for each one.
