Hi Everyone, back by popular demand, here's version 2. It now has options for inserting Date, Time, Full Name, and Document Name.
tip: you don't have to click on the "insert" buttons, you can type directly in the input box, for example, type:
Page *page* of *pages* to get Page 1 of 3
questions/comments? let me know
enjoy,

Yeah, I know; I just can't work with those pesky round buttons!

As always nice job Carlos, last time I needed to do page numbering of Illustrator files I used Acrobat but it wasn't fun there and it increased the pdf size a lot just for keeping the added page numbers. This looks much better.

Hey Carlos I made a change to the time function to display in 12-hour format hope that is alright, and I wanted to post it in case others would like to use it as well.
function gettime() {
var time = new(Date);
var hours = time.getHours();
if(hours > 11){
ampm = "PM";
} else {
ampm = "AM";
}
if(hours > 12){
hours = hours - 12;
}
var minutes = time.getMinutes();
if (minutes < 10){
minutes = "0" + minutes
}
var curtime = hours + ":" + minutes + " " + ampm;
return curtime;
}

Carlos,
Your Page Numbering Script is PHENOMINAL!!!
It works flawlessly in CS6.
Question: How can one alter the font style, weight, size, color, etc of the page numbering text prior to it being populated into the artboards?
Would also be beneficial to have the dates appear in different formats, examples:
July 9, 2012
07.09.2012
07/09/2012
7/9/2012
7/9/12
2012.07.09
Thank you for taking the time to create this.

thanks Tory, I was asked the same thing about the font styling when I released version 1, and my answer was...isn't it the same as doing it with the UI?
about the date formats....version 3 perhaps?

It would be really useful for large multi-artboard docs if you could set the font inside the script. Is it possible to pull it from Styles?
Just encountered a glitch in version2:
script window wouldn't close on "OK." Had to force quit. Mac OSX.7.3/Illustrator CS5.1
Thanks for the amazing script. Saved me so much time!

you're welcome, it is not a glitch, it is a feature. The idea is to be able to insert, pages at bottom right, file name at bottom left, etc. without having to fire the program multiple times.
Press Esc to close.

Ah. OK. Thanks!

Esc. to close is the thing to always try before force quit.
I like the feature where you can put the time date and page number in one shot.
Thanks for the script.
But have a request probably not doable.
I write fiction as a hobby. No I am not concerned about my spelling.
So I might work and a section and then putit aside for a while then resume it would be good to be able create sections and chapters with dates applied the to sections or chapters but no the the whole document!
Is such a thing possible?
A very handy device I must say I am for Adobe acquiring it from you.

that's the funniest thing you've said in a long time. Perfectly spelled!!
...Is such a thing possible?
can you make a mock up by hand? and post it here? If there's some kind of logic to it, it might be possible to implement.

Great job! nevertheless, I dared to insert a dirty modification (not a programer myself) to allow user insert page range and first number (for those cases in which the document's got front page, index, etc), copied bellow.
#target illustrator
//#targetengine main
// script.name = insertPageNumbers_v2.jsx; // works with CS4 & CS5 &C S6
// script description = Inserts page numbers (or any other text) to all artboards in the active document;
// script.required = at least one open document
// script.parent = CarlosCanto // 5/25/12;
// script.elegant = false;
// script.updates = added options to insert Date, Time, Full File Name, & File Name;
// added a button to clear previous entered data;
// dialog stays open, to be able to input data in multiple locations
// only one layer is created on multiple runs
// Notes: The script creates a new layer (Page Numbers) then adds a text frame per Artboard that act as footer or header text.
// Its primary function is to insert Page Numbers, but it could be used to insert any other kind of information.

Hello, I do realize this was a long time ago but maybe I could still get some help. This modification is exactly what I was looking for after Carlos´s original page numbering. The dialog box seems to have the options needed, to start numbering from x page to x page and start with x #. However, after filling the needed info and clicking ok just the #1 appears on top (outside the page actually) of a random page and nothing else. Am I doing something wrong? Verified to copy and paste the correct text from top to bottom twice.

Hey msando,
I know you posted this question almost four years ago, but I am having the same issue.
Did you ever find a solution?

First - use the download link at the top of the page in the first post (http://pastebin.com/UvNKrZgP)
Then place it here: Applications --> Adobe Illustrator --> Scripting --> Page Numbering (this folder includes both the downloaded files)
