Bookmarking Scenario - Possible?

After some searching I am not sure if the following scenario is possible with JavaScript.

Basically I scan a number of documents into separate PDF files. (Acrobat 5)

DOC1.pdf, DOC2.pdf ... DOC10.pdf
- There are always the same number of documents, and one part of the file name changes.
- All the files reside in the same folder.

We currently go into each document and create the 10 bookmarks set to open the other documents. This is very time consuming.

I would like to be able to open DOC1.pdf and run a script which would create the 10 bookmarks linking to the other documents. Additionally, if possible, I would like the script to open the other 9 documents and do the same. In each document we create the same bookmarks.

Would it be possible with the help of JavaScript to automate this process?
