Hi

Is it possible to place annotations on a page and then make them common for a whole document or on selected pages, instead of having to place a copy on each page or pages requiring them by onself ?

Also, is there a way to add printable page numbers to a document, if the document has none ?

Thanx

Hi bignose

I don't think you can add a single comment and have it show up on every page of a document. I believe this is what you are asking to do. I'll have this confirmed but am pretty sure it is so.

For adding printable page numbers there is a feature in PDF-Tools that does this with quite some control over the style and placement of the numbers.

Hi Paul

Yes it is what I was asking. If not, it might be worth incorporating ?

Ahhh I use PDF-Viewer so much, I forgot I had PDF-Tools.

Thanks

Do let me know how that works out for you OK?

Hi Paul

The page numbering worked fine.

As mentioned, it would be useful if some annotaions (text boxes) could be placed on every page in a document. Maybe something to consider adding in PDF-Tools if not PDF Viewer ?

Hi BN,

thanks for getting back to me on the results. I'm pleased that PDF-Tools did what you needed.

The team have had your suggestion about comments put to them so they are considering the feature possibly for v.3
