watermark on every fixed number of pages

I would like to insert a watermark on my pdf document every fixed number of pages (ex. every 5th page).  However, there is currently only the option to select a range of pages or every odd or even page.  

 

Having this feature would be very useful to me as my resources are 200-300 pages, the watermarks are distracting, and for security purposes not necessary to have on every page.  I'm hoping this feature can be developed soon.

 

 

 

Thanks.

I usually charge for private consultation sessions. If you're interested you can contact me via [try6767 at gmail.com].

 

You can learn here how to use the JS Console:

FYI for others that encounter this, try67 via email explained to insert the code "you just need to press Ctrl+J, paste the code into the window, select it all and then press Ctrl+Enter." And this worked and the code worked.

 This can be achieved using a custom-made script.

Do you want to use an image, or text? Where should it appear, and what should it look like?

Thanks. I want it to appear on the top of the page, text and I've attached a sample of what I would like it to look like. The water mark is on the top left corner.

Try this code:

 

var watermarkText = "Purchased by A Smith January 7, 2022";
for (var p=0; p<this.numPages; p++) {
	if (p==0 || p%5==4)
		this.addWatermarkFromText({nStart: p, cText: watermarkText, cFont: "Arial", nFontSize: 8, nHorizAlign: app.constants.align.left, nVertAlign: app.constants.align.top, nHorizValue: 14, nVertValue: -24});
}
