Hi, Is there a way to "batch" stamp mulitple pdf files. I have 200 pdf files I need to stamp "Approved". Looking for a batch routine or something that will make this faster.

 

Thanks

Kelvin

    The answer is yes. But it requires an "Action" that uses a script.  You'll find some of the code you need for this here:

    https://www.pdfscripting.com/public/PDF-Page-Coordinates.cfm

     

    The key part of the code is determining the location where you want the stamp placed. Then use this line of code to place the stamp:

     

    this.addAnnot({type:"Stamp",page:nPage, rect:rect, AP:"StampName"});

     

    You'll need to fill in all of the paramatets except for the "type".

    Yes, you can do it in Acrobat Pro using the Action Wizard and a script.

    The script itself is not too complicated, except for one or two aspects of it.

    Do you want to stamp all the pages of all the files, or just one page? If so, which one?

    And where exactly on the page do you want to place the stamp?

    This is the Using the Community forum (which is the forum for issues using the forums).

    Please tell us what Adobe application (Acrobat, Photoshop, Photoshop Elements?) you are using so that this can be moved to the proper forum for help.
