Stamp PDF ​

Ribbon location: DVD Addin tab → File and Print group → the arrow next to Read PDF

Command ID: btnPdfStamp

License required

This command needs an active DVDAddin account (Standard or PRO). During the Trial period it is fully available.

What it does ​

Numbers pages and applies stamps to many PDFs in a single run.

Submission sets need numbering that runs continuously across files and a "COPY" or company seal on every page. Doing that in an ordinary PDF tool means opening each file, re-placing everything, and adding up the page counts by hand — which is where the mistakes come from.

How to use it ​

  1. Click Stamp PDF in the DVD Addin tab → File and Print group → the arrow next to Read PDF.
  2. Add files… or Add folder…. Each row shows its page count, and the header shows the total for the set.
  3. Use Move up to order them — the file order is the numbering order.
  4. Switch on Page numbering and/or Stamp, and set the options in each panel.
  5. Choose an output folder and suffix. Leave the folder empty to write beside each source.
  6. Click Run.

Illustrated walkthrough ​

Step 1. On the ribbon, open the DVD Addin tab → File and Print group → open Read PDF → choose Stamp PDF.

DVD Addin ▸ File and Print ▸ Read PDF ▸ Stamp PDF

Step 2. Click Add files… or Add folder… (1) to load the PDF set; each row shows its page count and the header shows the total for the set. Select a row and click Move up (2) to reorder — the file order is the numbering order.

Step 2

Step 3. Turn on Page numbering (1): type the text template ({n} page number, {total} total pages), the position and the page range — from page 2 to skip the cover — and keep Continue numbering across files (2). Turn on Stamp (3), type the stamp text or pick a seal image, and set the rotation and opacity. Choose the Output folder and suffix (4), then click Run (5).

Step 3

Step 4. The add-in writes new PDF files to the output folder (or beside each source when it is empty), named source name + suffix, e.g. 02_BanVe_KienTruc_stamped.pdf; sources are never modified and an existing name gets (2). When finished it reports Done: 4 file(s), 86 pages.; hold ESC to stop partway.

Page numbering ​

OptionMeaning
Text template{n} page number · {total} total pages · {file} file name. E.g. Page {n}/{total}
PositionNine positions: three rows (top / middle / bottom) × three columns (left / centre / right)
Start atThe number given to the first numbered page, not to page 1 of the file
DigitsZero padding — 4 produces 0007
PagesThe range to number; 0 in the second box means "to the last page"
Continue across filesOn: the whole set runs continuously and {total} is the set total. Off: each file restarts

Skipping the cover

Set Pages from 2 and Start at 1 — the cover gets no number and page 2 shows 1.

Stamping ​

OptionMeaning
Stamp texte.g. BẢN SAO, APPROVED, NOT FOR CONSTRUCTION
Stamp imageA scanned seal (png/jpg). An image takes precedence over the text
RotateDegrees. 45 gives the familiar diagonal stamp, 0 is horizontal
Opacity0–1. 0.25 is faint enough to read through without hiding content

Rotated pages ​

A1 and A0 drawings are usually stored with a 90° or 270° rotation flag. This command computes positions in the coordinates the reader actually sees, so "bottom — centre" lands at the visual bottom rather than off to one side.

This was verified by stamping test PDFs at all four rotations 0° / 90° / 180° / 270°, rendering them back to images and measuring where the text actually landed — all four came out at the bottom centre.

Notes ​

  • Source files are never overwritten. Results are new files with the suffix; if that name exists the add-in appends (2), (3).
  • Corrupt or password-protected files are detected as they are added to the list, not partway through the run, and the count is reported.
  • With continuous numbering, {total} is the whole set, so a 12-file submission no longer shows "page 5/5" twelve times.
  • Vietnamese diacritics render correctly because the add-in uses the Windows fonts.
  • Hold ESC to stop on a large set; files already finished are kept.
