Add Bates numbers to a PDF

Bates numbering stamps each page with a unique, sequential identifier like ACME000001, so everyone in a case can point to the exact page. Drop a PDF, type the prefix (a case or client code), the starting number and the number of digits, pick the corner, and see the first and last numbers before you start. Numbers are stamped upright even on sideways pages, with an optional white box so they stay readable on scans.
