Hello,
I would like to add alphanumeric pagination.
Basically I need to do add a 3 digit number ending with a letter. So for example: 240a, 240b, 240c etc. I'm using the bates numbering option to this end, however I am unable to get the result I require. I am using a version of Adobe Acrobat X, unfortunately i'm not presently in the office, and hence I'm unsure exactly what version. I assume one of the last prior to DC I follow the usual bates numbering system adding (A) in the suffix box, but that just results with 240a running continuously throughout all the pages. I assume that I need to edit the code that's applied when I select insert bates numbering to hard code what I require. But I don't know what that edit should be. I've tried multiple variations, but have not been able to find a solution. My alternative has been to do each page individually, which is taking for ever as I have multiple documents to prepare this way - there most be a better option.
So in summary, using only Adobe Acrobat. I need to apply alphanumeric numbering as seen in the example above.
I would appreciate if any solutions to can be explained step by step to avoid any confusion on my side when trying to implement the process.
Kind regards
Mike

Do you need this code for each page (ie, page 1 is 240A, page 2 is 240B, etc.) or each document to be stamped separately as a part of a batch process? And what should happen after you reach 240Z?

Hi,
I need a code or method that will allow me to add numbering for each individual document. There is never any more that nine pages so I only needn't worry about z. One document may be 260a b, c, etc., another 220a b, c,
Regards
