Add numbered graphics/icons to a pdf floor plan document

Question

I have a floor plan of my company's 5th floor (in pdf format) and as their sysadmin I need to add small little graphics representing numbers in little circles or triangle(those little circles or triangle, I can pick them either from another powerpoint or pdf document that has them already / or from those numbering icons you see in gif or jpeg format around the web/ they are basicly meant to describe printer 1, printer 2, fax 1, fax2, ..etc) throughout the pdf plan. I opened my pdf floor plan using Acrobat Writer 7, and the closer I get is to add notes (via the "Add Note" function) which actually get me the little triangle or circle I need but...I can't put numbers in them...(I know I can edit the note and add ..let's say 1,2 or 3 in it's editing text....but those numbers are never displayed in the triangle /circle....you see them only if you move the cursor over the triangle/circle note). I also have the menu TOOLS > Drawing Markups but the problem is the same here: I can add the drawing markups (oval, circle..etc) but cannot get the numbers displayed inside of them. The other closet way is Via the menu TOOLS>DRAWING MARKUPS, TEXT BOX TOOLS: The problem here is that I get my number but in a square box. I would want that number to be in a circle and a triangle instead. PS: I could leave without the copy and paste of the numbering circles or triangle from MS powerpoint/other pdf document if I could just get those numbers in small circles or triangles within the pdf document.

You can make custom stamps for each of the things you want and then apply them to the document. That will definitely give you the control you want of how it looks, though may be a bit tedious to setup.
