Add a Bates numbering header or footer (Acrobat Pro DC)
Bates numbering is a method of indexing legal documents for easy identification and retrieval. Each page of each
document is assigned a unique Bates number that also indicates its relationship to other Bates-numbered documents.
Bates numbers appear as headers or footers on the pages of each PDF in the batch.
The Bates identifier is referred to as a number, but it can include an alphanumeric prefix and suffix. The prefix and
suffix can make it easier to recognize the central subject matter of the files.
Note: Bates numbering is unavailable for protected or encrypted files and some forms.
Add Bates numbering
When designating documents for Bates numbering, you can add PDFs, and any non-PDF files that can be converted
to PDF. The process converts non-PDF file types to PDF, and then adds Bates numbers to the resulting PDF.
1 Choose To o ls > Edit PDF.
The Edit PDF toolset is displayed in the secondary toolbar.
2 In the secondary toolbar, choose More > Bates Numbering > Add.
3 In the Bates Numbering dialog box, click Add Files, and choose Add Files, Add Folders, or Add Open Files. Then
select the files or folder.
Note: If you add a folder that contains files other than PDFs, the non-PDF files are not added.
If any files are password-protected, one or more messages appear, in which you must enter the correct password.
4 As needed, do any of the following in the list of files:
• To change the order in which Bates numbers are assigned, select a file, then drag it or click Move Up or Move
Down.
• To sort the list, click a column name. Click again to sort in reverse order.
5 To specify a target folder for output files and filename preferences, click Output Options. Specify the options as
needed, and then click OK.
