  • Re: How do i create a custom dynamic stamp in adobe acrobat dc Karl Heinz Kremer Sep 6, 2017 9:45 AM ( in response to katiet41632767 ) You may be better off just modifying one of the existing dynamic stamps in Acrobat vs. Creating a new one.
  • The bubble stamp file is a circle but didn't work well for three digit numbers so I created the oval file. Do not import these within Acrobat or it will drop the dynamic elements. Place the files in the following location: C: Program Files Adobe (your version of acrobat) Acrobat plugins Annotations Stamps ENU.

I was speaking with author David Blatner at the 2015 Adobe Max conference. David is a top speaker and author on many Adobe creative products. I was surprised to hear that he was using some Stamps from this blog, but he also informed me that a previous post on Dynamic Paid and Received Stamps was missing.

Mea culpa. I had meant to update the article, but had set it to Draft status.

We are using Adobe Acrobat Pro. My coworker created an exhibit sticker in a pdf document to be imported as a custom stamp in the dynamic stamp. I browse to locate the pdf document, then pull it into dynamic stamp under comment, custom stamps, manage stamps — my stamp ends up rotating 90 degrees and enlarging. Creating a dynamic stamp in Acrobat enables you to add a personal touch to your business documents. Such stamps tell your associates that they're dealing with you and not some faceless force. Dynamic stamps for use with Adobe pdf files. Are you tired of physical stamps and messy ink? Is a lot of your work done with electronic or digital documents such as Adobe pdf documents? If you need mark-up stamps for Adobe that allow for entering custom data each time they are applied, you will love our digital dynamic stamps. PDF Stamp is a perfect tool that lets you add images, texts, and Line watermark to a batch of Acrobat PDF documents. With PDF Stamp, you can create, edit and manage the text, image, line watermark. Text watermark support static and dynamic text, with dynamic text, you can use PDF file name, metadata information, and date time as the watermark.

Here’s your fix, David!

Unlike static stamps, Dynamic Stamps use a bit of JavaScript to enter variable information.

Via this article, you can download a set of four Paid and Received stamps:

Download the File

Received and Paid Stamps (68K)

Make sure you download the file, don’t just view it in your browser.

Install the Stamp File

You must INSTALL the Stamps file to use it. Opening it in Acrobat won’t do anything!

Edit Dynamic Stamp In Adobe

You will need to be an admin on your computer to install the file.

  1. Quit Acrobat if it is already open.
  2. Copy the Review Stamps.pdf file to the User Stamps folder:

Windows
Acrobat DC
C:UsersUSERNAMEAppDataRoamingAdobeAcrobatDCStamps

Acrobat XI
C:UsersUSERNAMEAppDataRoamingAdobeAcrobat11.0Stamps

MAC OSX

Acrobat DC
/Macintosh HD/Users/USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Acrobat/DC/Stamps/

Acrobat XI
/Macintosh HD/Users/USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Acrobat/11.0/Stamps/

The folders might be hidden . . .

These folder locations may be hidden on your computer, so don’t freak out if you don’t see them at first.

Here are some tips for finding them:

Another way to find the Stamps folder

An alternate way to find your stamps folder is to have Acrobat tell you where it is located. You can do this from the JavaScript debugger. Here’s how:

  1. Hit CTRL-J (Win) or CMD-J (Mac)
  2. Enter app.getPath(“user”, “stamps”);
  3. Hit CTRL-ENTER (Win) or CMD-Enter (Mac) to see the stamps path

  3. From the dropdown menu, choose Received and Paid Stamps category:
