In this tip, ARTS PDF Product Manager Maryanne Montes takes some of the pain out of this process.
Do you need to add stamps to hard copies of your PDF documents? This JavaScript tip from ARTS PDF's Sean Stewart allows for the addition of time and date stamps, expiry dates or other information to give you even greater control of your sensitive PDF documents.
