Manually Edit Attribute Values

To manually edit attribute values, simply click in the relevant attribute field in the area and enter your changes.

Bulk Edit Sheet Numbers

Click Bulk edit to view options to bulk edit the sheet number, sheet title, and custom attributes for the pages you've selected.

Use Filename as Sheet Number

Click this option to give each page the same sheet number as the file name. For example, for a PDF file called 5 - Drawing Package.pdf, the sheet number becomes 5 - Drawing Package for each page. As you're not allowed duplicate sheet numbers, you will need to edit these either manually or by bulk editing and applying rules to create unique sheet numbers.

Number Sheets Sequentially

Add a numeric character to the Start count at field and preview the sheet numbers of all selected pages in the After column.

Apply Rules to Sheet Numbers

You can apply rules to pages to bulk edit sheet numbers. This is useful if you have duplicates you want to make unique, or you want to add, trim, keep, or replace characters. You can add multiple rules.

1. Select Apply rules to Sheet number

   • Before column, you can see the sheet numbers or titles before the rules are applied.

   • After column show a preview of the sheet numbers or titles for the selected pages after the rules are applied.

     

2. Click Add rule to add one, or a combination of the following rules:

Add Characters

You can enter a prefix or suffix. If there is no sheet number or title, only the prefix and/or suffix will display.

Trim Characters

You can define how many characters to cut:

• First characters
• Last characters
• Before special character: If there is more than one occurrence of the special character, select which one to cut text before.
• After special character: If there is more than one occurrence of the special character, select which one to cut text after.

Keep Characters

You can keep characters with the same options as Trim characters above.

Replace Characters

Enter the text in the Text field that you want to replace and the replacement text in the With field.

Reset Sheet Numbers

Click Reset sheet numbers to reset the pages with their previously extracted or saved values.

Bulk Edit Sheet Titles

Apply Rules to Sheet Titles

The Apply rules to sheet titles option works identically to Apply Rules to Sheet Numbers.

Bulk Edit Custom Attributes

This option displays if you've added custom attributes (which includes Sheet title). You can either:

• Manually enter values which will apply to all selected pages; or
• Apply rules in the same way as Apply Rules to Sheet Numbers.
