Printing - Adding the File Location as a Document Footnote

Question

Re: Acrobat 7.0 Standard
Have about 1000 PDF files --- each with a filename that's a specific number, from 1 through 1000 (the number --- aka, the filename --- is the section the document represents... there's 1000 sections in the project)
Simply put, the main directory of files looks like:
c:/Articles/1.pdf
c:/Articles/2.pdf
c:/Articles/3.pdf
...through c:/Articles/1000.pdf
===
Am looking to process the above PDF files using Acrobat --- to print the file's location on my hard-drive as a footnote to the document.
In other words, looking to take the PDF documents that are in "c:/Articles" ...and then, to process them all by adding the file location as a footnote -- and producing footnoted versions at "c:/Articles/Processed"
Thanks a lot.

Answer 1

Do you want the footer to change as you move the files to different directories? If so you can add some JavaScript to each file to the "Will Print" action to add a water mark from text to the bottom of each page with the files location, path or URL. But this solution will only work in Acrobat Standard or better. If you had the Professional version, one could use the "Batch Processing" feature to add the code to each file.
You could also use JavaScript to add a custom menu bar or tool bar item to add the water mark or inset the code on a file by file basis.
