question for acrobat scripters...

[jaedend]

Here's that I'd like to do:

Take a multipage input PDF.
Copy the entire pdf into a new document, add an invoice number in a
certain spot for each page, increase the invoice number and repeat for
a set ammount.

So say I'm doing 3-part NCR, I give it the 3-page PDF and tell it I
need 4 sets starting at number 001001. The resulting pdf would be 12
pages long and be numbered:
001001,001001,001001,
001002,001002,001002,
001003,001003,001003,
001004,001004,001004.

I know this can be done with javascript but I'm very new to the
language. Can someone tell me if this would be terribly difficult for
a begginer to do?

How do you know that this can be done with JS when you are a beginner? If
you came across some examples, than that would be your starting point to
play with and nothing else.

I remember seeing a script that did this for acrobat on a web page a
long time ago (4-5 years). At that time I had no use for it. Now I
do, but I can no longer find the script or references to it anywhere.
It was called "CarbonCopy"
