Sound familiar?

When you Google “Bates Numbering”…

  • Your private files on someone else’s server.

    You have to upload the whole file, even when you only need a small change.

  • Ads to watch. Credits to buy.

    You finish the steps, then find out you have to pay or watch an ad to get your file.

  • “This format isn’t supported.”

    You find a converter, but it cannot open the file you actually have.

  • Too many buttons. No clear next step.

    A complicated interface turns a simple file task into something you have to learn.

  • A bad result. Another search.

    The tool crashes or the result is wrong. Now you have to start again somewhere else.

Apply sequential Bates numbers across one PDF or a whole batch — useful for legal productions and document sets — without uploading files. ConvertPeach stamps pages in your browser with style presets or a custom pattern using placeholders like [BATES_NUMBER] and [FILE_NUMBER].

Choose stamp location, where the sequence continues from, and optionally expand margins so the stamp does not cover existing text. Multiple files download as a ZIP. Free and private.

How to add Bates numbering

  1. Drop one or more PDFs into the uploader (order matters for multi-file sequences).
  2. Choose style or custom pattern, position, sequence start, and margin options.
  3. Download the stamped PDF, or a ZIP when you processed multiple files.

Why use Bates numbering on ConvertPeach

  • Production-ready sequences. Continuous numbering across pages and files for discovery-style sets.
  • Flexible stamp text. Preset styles or custom patterns with [BATES_NUMBER] and [FILE_NUMBER].
  • Batch ZIP output. Process many PDFs and download stamped results together.
  • Private. Nothing is uploaded; ConvertPeach runs Bates stamping only on your device.

When to use Bates Numbering

  • Label exhibits and productions for litigation or compliance review.
  • Keep a shared page ID across a multi-file document set.
  • Stamp a single long PDF with a consistent identifier on every page.
  • Add file-aware labels when several PDFs share one Bates run.

Stamp styles and placeholders

Option Use
Preset styles Common Bates layouts without writing a pattern.
Custom pattern Build stamp text with placeholders such as [BATES_NUMBER] and [FILE_NUMBER].
  • [BATES_NUMBER] — the running Bates value for that page in the sequence.
  • [FILE_NUMBER] — identifies which file in a multi-file batch the page belongs to.

Multi-file batches

Add several PDFs in the order you want the sequence to follow. Numbering continues across every page of every file. Outputs for multiple inputs are packed into a ZIP.

Margins and placement

Pick header/footer-style positions (left, center, right). Increase margins adds a blank border around each page and places the Bates stamp in that margin so it is less likely to overlap existing content.

Frequently asked questions

Can I Bates-stamp multiple PDFs at once?

Yes. Add several files in order; the Bates sequence continues across every page of every file. Multiple outputs are packed into a ZIP.

What do [BATES_NUMBER] and [FILE_NUMBER] do?

[BATES_NUMBER] inserts the running Bates value. [FILE_NUMBER] inserts the index of the file in a multi-file batch so stamps can show both sequence and source file.

What does Increase margins do?

It adds a blank border around each page and places the Bates stamp in that margin so it is less likely to overlap existing content.

Are my files uploaded?

No. Bates numbering on ConvertPeach runs entirely in your browser.
