Bates Numbering is a method of indexing documents for easy identification and retrieval. ParmisPDF allows users to apply Bates numbers to one document or to a whole set* of documents, and they may apply more than one Bates Numbering sequence to a single or multiple documents. Document sets may also be given a unique set of numbers or prefixes which might include text such as a set number, case number, or firm name.

This flexible structure allows for accommodation of a wide variety of stamping specifications. You can add unlimited number of stamps per page and there is no limitation in number of stamp elements including static texts(suffix, prefix and etc), dynamic texts (variables like total page/bates, document pages/bates, page number, date/time and etc).
