Hi,
Does Aspose PDF or PDFKit support “PDF Bates Numbering” or “Bates Stamping”?

Thanks.!

Hi Sudheer,

Aspose.Pdf.Kit currently doesn’t provide the feature of Bates Stamping. It only allows you stamp a PDF file with some text or image using PdfFileStamp class. However, I have logged this requirement as
PDFKITNET-10848 in our issue tracking system. You’ll be updated via this forum as this feature is provided in Aspose.Pdf.Kit; nevertheless, I’m afraid this can’t be supported in short time.

We’re sorry for the inconvenience.
Regards,

Has the Bates Numbering feature been added since this post in 2009?

Hi Dale,

I am afraid your requested feature is not supported at the moment. I have asked the development team to share the plan to support the feature. I will update you once I get a feedback from their side.

Sorry for the inconvenience,

Hi again --

I was looking at the documentation for ASPOSE.PDF and see this feature: "Add Page Number Stamp in a PDF File"

It seems to me that this function performs the same basic functions as one would expect in "Bates Numbering".

Has anyone tried this to handle Bates Numbering? How would a Bates Numbering feature differ from this feature?

Thanks

Dale

Hi Dale,


Thanks for contacting support.

We are planning to implement the Bates Numbering as being offered by Adobe. Please note that we are planning to implement ‘SubType’ support that would be nice for this feature. Frankly speaking, we have not tested the Bates Numbering through stamping technique. We will further look into the details of this problem from this perspective, and will keep you updated on status of correction. Please be patient and spare us little time. We are sorry for your inconvenience.

Hi asad.ali,

We would like to add bates numbering through stamping technique as offered by adobe (Adobe bates numbering). We know that aspose offers various stamping techniques but we would like to add bates numbering as supported by Adobe’s bates numbering. Aspose PDF currently has limited support only providing the mechanism for removing existing bates numbers as shown in the code snippet below but not the add functionality. We would like if this add bates numbering feature is added please.

Document doc = new Document(@"C:\Samples\Sample-Document03.pdf");
    foreach (var page in doc.Pages)
    {
        var batesNum = page.Artifacts.First(ar => ar.CustomSubtype == "BatesN");
        page.Artifacts.Delete(batesNum);
    }
    doc.Save(@"C:\Samples\Sample-Document04.pdf");

Thank you
