Prerequisites

• Node.js installed

Getting started

• You can use defaults for coordinates and fontsize by pressing the enter key.

• npm install -g insert-text-pdf : It's vital that you use the -g flag as it's a tool to be used in the command line.
• Open a shell (Powershell/cmd/bash etc)
• insert-text-pdf insert : This is the actual command for inserting strings into the PDFs of a directory
• Press enter and a text editor will pop up, type the string you want to insert into the pdfs in this editor, save it and then close the editor
• Paste in the absolute path to the directory with the target PDFs
• Enter a x coordinate to place the text at, this defaults to the middle of the page.
• Enter a y coordinate to place the text at, this defaults to the top of the page.
• Enter a font size for the text, this defaults to 10.
• The processed PDFs can be found in a subdirectory inside the target directory called "parsed"
• Profit, maybe?
