Can I add the file name and page numbers to multiple pdfs automatically?

Hello. Thanks first for taking the time to read this! We are a small non profit hospice. Looking to take a large amount of files and put the patients last name (which is the file name) and a page number on the footer of every page of every document. For example. File Name Smith. Smith 1 Smith 2 Smith 3 etc. However I like to be able to do this to multiple files at once and not have to open each one up.

Go to Advanced - Document Processing - Batch Processing...
Click New Sequence and give it a name.
Now select the sequence you've created, click Edit Sequence, click Select Commands.
Select Execute JavaScript from the left-hand side, and click Add.
Now select it on the right-hand side and click Edit.
Paste the code from my previous post into the window, and click OK twice.
Now, back in the Edit Sequence window, select the folder you want to run the batch on, and the output folder. Be aware that if you choose the same folder, the original files will be overwritten, so you might want to use a different one.
Under Source File Options, deselect everything.
Click OK.
You're now ready to run the batch sequence!

Can I print the File name and page number

When printing a file, I would like to print the File Name and the page number also...something like a header, in every page printed. Is this possible in Acrobat? Please advise.
Thanks

Sure. Did you look under Tools - Pages - Header & Footer ?

How can I set the file name and folder for output to PDF from another application?

I am developing an application in Microsoft Access where the printed reports are to be saved in PDF format for archive purposes. I can send the output to Adobe X, but the default file name is the Access report name and the folder selected is the one last used.
What I need to do is to create the file with a specific name (which changes for each run) and to a specific folder (which also changes for each run).
The language I'm using is Visual Basic for Applications which is located in an Access form that controls the report production.
Any suggestions, please?

Got it - many thanks.

Inserting filename and page numbers into multiple PDF files?

Have since seen this thread, BUT still interested in the syntax of the code
to insert filename and page # into multiple files:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/951925?tstart=0
Good Evening (GMT!)
I have approx 100 PDFs with one or two pages in each, they are English translations
of Russian language test certificates and the formatting/feel of the originals is lost in
the translations. The only real link between the two sources is the "_RUS" and "_ENG"
filename suffixes and the common leading filenames otherwise. Thus I need to maintain
a record of the filename in any page I print off, should there be a need to refer back to
the original if the translation is open to artistic licence.
I have a script (below) that happily adds a page x/y and filename into the active file,
what I would like is to be able to do this insertion into multiple files as defined by a
portfolio or a selection via a select files dialogue box
I am quite out of my depth now as my past skirmishes with JavaScript have set
cookies and tweaked a few other browser doodads in webauthoring
Any help most appreciated on this one...
Kind Regards

NB the filename inserted may be corrupted as a result of my last tweakings
will sort that one out ASAP....

Putting this in a batch file within the automation function of Acrobat
delivers the goods, I need to investigate the formatting of the output to
get them to line up, have taken the middle ground and gone for a central
position for the page x/y text...... some lines are redundant

How can I edit the file name of the home page?

How can I edit the file name of the home page?
Gr Ammani

I have a similar issue with regards to the filename...
When I navigate to my website, it doesnt work unless I actually type the filename at the end of it. Example: type in "www.whitelion.com" (this is my real domain name) and it doesnt work. When I type in "www.whitelion.com/index.html" then it works.
This is obviously inconvenient because my clients will never know to add the filename to the end of the site.
Is there any setting or way to get the page to appear by just typing the original domain name without adding the extension?
Thanks,

How can i add a file name(the text of the file name) as a child node to existing node in a treeView1 ?

bool exists = false;
TreeNode newNodeParsed = null;
TreeNode rootNode = treeViewMS1.Nodes[0];
TreeNode nextNode = rootNode;
string f = Path.GetFileName(txtUploadFile.Text);
TreeNode subnode = new TreeNode(txtDir.Text);
TreeNode filename = new TreeNode(f);
if (!txtDir.Text.Contains("/"))
foreach (TreeNode node in rootNode.Nodes)
if (node.Text == txtDir.Text)
exists = true;
break;
if (exists == true)
subnode.Nodes.Add(f);
else
rootNode.Nodes.Add(subnode);
subnode.Nodes.Add(f);
The rootNode is the root directory in the treeView1
subnode is a node inside the root. For example the subnode name is manuelisback
I'm checking if the subnode exist i want to add the file for example (lightning1.jpg) to be under subnode.
If the subnode is not existing add the subnode to the root and then add the file name lightning1.jpg under the subnode.
But the file name is never added under the subnode:
I added manualy the lightning1.jpg under test.
But the lightning1.jpg also should be added to be under manuelisback. There should be two lightning1.jpg here.
One under manuelisback and one under test. The one under test i added manualy from my ftp server.
But the one i want to be under manuelisback i'm trying to add from my program and it dosen't add it to there.
And when i'm using a breakpoint i see on subnode the text manuelisback and i see on f the text lightning1.jpg

If I understand your question correctly, you might want to try changing:
if (!txtDir.Text.Contains("/"))
foreach (TreeNode node in rootNode.Nodes)
if (node.Text == txtDir.Text)
exists = true;
break;
if (exists == true)
subnode.Nodes.Add(f);
else
rootNode.Nodes.Add(subnode);
subnode.Nodes.Add(f);
to something like:
if (!txtDir.Text.Contains("/"))
foreach (TreeNode node in rootNode.Nodes)
if (node.Text == txtDir.Text)
subnode = node;
exists = true;
break;
if (exists == true)
subnode.Nodes.Add(f);
else
rootNode.Nodes.Add(subnode);
subnode.Nodes.Add(f);
rootNode.Nodes.Add(f);

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The Guest login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Can I display the File name at the bottom of the Grid view window?

Dang. I'm probably going to catch some flak for this... but I can't find where this bone is buried. When the main viewer is in grid mode, the bottom of the window says "1 selected - 9 items displayed" or something to that effect. Is there a way to replace that with the name of the file(s) that is currently selected?
I have searched the manual and tried many of the Metadata display options and can get all kinds of info to show up when double clicking to bring that image full screen. But I'd like to see its name when simply selected in the grid view.
Obviously that info is available in the Info pane to the left. But when doing basic organizing, I like to leave that side on the Library pane.
Screen grab for the situation I am talking about:
Thank you!
Bo

Bo,
I have no idea, if it would be possible to change the caption in the line below the grid.
But why not add the filename of each image to the grid view like this?
Edit the metadata for the Gridview (expanded or basic) to include the "File name" and arrange the display order to show the Filename first. This way you will see it bleow each image.
Another way to alway see the filename would be to set the Metadata Tooltip to include the filename, and to enable the tooltip, when you are using grid view.

Hello,
In mini bridge, is it possible to view the file name and the rating at the same time?
Thank you.

if you know when a new image arrives and you can retrieve that new image file name ...
Well, that's precisely my doubt, how can I know the file name? Is there a property/method for it?
function loadImages() {
for (var i:int=0; i<imagesNames.length; i++) {
var imgLoader:Loader=new Loader;
imgLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,imgLoaded);
imgLoader.load(new URLRequest(imgPath + imagesNames[i]));
function imgLoaded(par:Event):void {
trace(par.target,par.target.content,par.target.content.name);
Output window:

My file names have disappeared in grid view. Thery have been replaced with a dark bar along the bottom of the previews. If I toggle using the command u it hide the bar but I still can't see the file name. In list view all the file names are OK.

My file names have disappeared in grid view. Thery have been replaced with a dark bar along the bottom of the previews. If I toggle using the command u it hide the bar but I still can't see the file name. In list view all the file names are OK.

The dark bar is caused by the option "Show metadata below image".
Check the settings for the metadata overlays in Grid view (basic and expanded) by clicking the little "badge" icon below the Browser and selecting "Edit". Is the filename still enabled in the list? And in a high enough position to have precedence for other metadata tags, if the space does not suffice to show all selected tags?

Can you get the file name of the current executing TSQL script?

Can you get the file name of the current executing TSQL script? I wrote entries to a generic log file and would like to include the script name.

Okay, So What you can do is
1. Read get the version from your database and redirect it to a text file(SQLCMD outout can be directed to text file using -o option or windows redirection operator >)
2. Now you can read this value from the text file either inside a batch file or a powershell script and decide what operations you can do.

String contentType = fileUploadData.selectValue(null, "UPLOAD_FILE_MIME_TYPE");
But this piece of code gives errors saying that selectValue selectValue(null, java.lang.String) not found in class oracle.svc.DataObject

How can I add the controller name in the subject of Alarm emails? PI2.1

How can I add the controller name in the Alarm emails in PI2.1? This would make it much easier to scan the mailbox and see what devices are affected.

Thanx for your reply. No, although helpful, that's not what I meant. In outlook, the first line of the header contains the full username follow by a horizontal line. Under that, the default headers like To:, From:, Subject: etc follow.
I need that firstline printed so we know instantly from which user the email was printed (the To: field often is the same name of the sender of the mail, therefor you won't know WHO printed it...).
