Hi,
Acrobat Reader 7 does not have this ability built in. PDF manipulation is not
truly available in the command-line level/mode, and is thus not scriptable.
I have even searched the Web to confirm this. GhostView will not help here
either.
As the format in question is too complex to be changed by appending text (it
is intended to be secure), you must take the route of bloatware. You could
use semi-automatic ways at best, but still must work through the GUI, I
suspect. If the PDF's are generated from TeX, you can easily batch-process
the TeX and then batch-compile all the TeX to get the PDF's you want.
Hope it helps,
Roy
