: How to numbering a set of paper I have 500 page I want to restore it digitally, they are a set of pages from a very old book I already have and want to reprint it again with my digital

@Ann6370331

a script I have just found doing the job quite well, specially when I include it in an action for re-positioning.

the script is Add File Name as Text Layer and you can find it here

simply the script add a text layer that contains the name of the opened file. so what i have to do is to rename all files to have the exact numbering order and let the my action do the job.

If your scans are consistent (same size and positioning), you could simply create an InDesign document, import them in and use the Masters to place your pagination number. It'll then apply to all the pages and you'll be able to export a PDF.

For quicker placing of your images, I'm fairly sure something could be programmed to do this in InDesign using the scripting features (Javascript or Applescript) but I'm not knowledgeable enough in this field to guide you more.
