I upgraded a month or so ago and unfortunately, this is the first time I have needed to Bates Number a production. In Acrobat 9 it was a fairly easy process and I have not been able to figure out a good and simple way to do this in Acrobat X. Although I have created an Action -- it seems to prompt me to plug in the bates number at each document. Also, I cannot find a way to have it rename the bates numbered document with the BATES number range the way Acrobat 9 could do it.
Any Actions or some button I am missing that makes this as easy as it was in the previous version?
Thanks.

Thanks. I found the old way you bates numbered it's in the Tools panel. My issue is you have to have a PDF open the trigger it. This is something that should be reconsidered.

HELP. I don't find how to do Bates numbering in Adobe X. It's not under Tools. (It used to be under advanced in old versions; then it was Tools, Pages, Edit under trial version; I bought Adobe X and there's no "Edit" under Pages; and nothing under Tools or Pages for Bates numbering. Did I buy the wrong Version ?

I have to say, this is one of the more annoying aspects of Acrobat X. You don't always want a document opened when you bates label. It's just an unnecessary step. Bring back the tools menu!
