حول هذه الأداة

Bates Numbering applies sequential identification numbers to every page of a PDF — the standard for legal discovery, litigation, and document production. Each page receives a unique number that runs continuously through the document.

Add a custom prefix (e.g. ABC) and suffix, choose how many digits to zero-pad to (000001), set the starting number, and place the stamp in any corner. Perfect for law firms, paralegals, and anyone preparing exhibits or records.

All processing happens locally in your browser — your confidential documents never leave your device.

الأسئلة الشائعة

What is Bates numbering?

It is a method of sequentially numbering pages of documents (often with a prefix), widely used in legal, medical, and business settings to uniquely identify and reference each page.

Can I add a prefix like "ABC000001"?

Yes. Set a prefix, a starting number, and the number of digits to zero-pad to, and an optional suffix. The preview shows exactly how the first stamp will look.

Does the number reset on each page?

No. Bates numbers run continuously across the whole document, increasing by one on every page from your chosen starting number.
