Can I make Word 2000 place page numbers on an existing non Word do

[Guest]

I have several documents(PDF) files already printed of varying number of
pages. Can I run those existing printed pages back through the printer and
have Word number the pages such as " 1 of 728" "2 of 728" ect.

If you create a plain document and add insert 1 fewer page breaks than the
number of pages in the document - the following macro will do that

Sub InstBreaks()
Dim iPage As Integer
iPage = InputBox("How Many Pages in the document?", "Add Pages")
For x = 1 To iPage - 1
Selection.InsertBreak Type:=wdPageBreak
Next x
End Sub

You can add a the {Page} of {NumPages} to the footer in such a position
that it will not interfere with the text in your PDFs, then print the
document on your printouts

Repeat for each PDF document.
