Help: Number Pages

PDFpen includes a selection of pre-programmed AppleScripts. One of the included AppleScripts will number all the pages in a PDF.

  1. Choose Number Pages from the AppleScript menu applescript (the scroll icon at the far right of the menus)
  2. PDFpen will automatically insert a page number in sequence on every page at the bottom left corner of the page.

Bates Numbering

For easier identification and faster searching in large sets of files, you can use Bates numbering.

  1. Choose Number Pages using Bates Numbering from the AppleScript menu applescript (the scroll icon at the far right of the menus)
  2. A window will open to let you choose the Bates numbering prefix. Type your prefix and click OK.
  3. PDFpen will automatically insert the page number in sequence on every page at the bottom left corner of the page.

To Edit the AppleScript:

Hold down the option key and select Number Pages or Number Pages using Bates Numbering to alter the script used to do the page numbering. If you're at all brave with AppleScript, you can change the location, size and format of the page numbers, and run the script with those changes.
