Page numbering in a batch process

[Grunty]

I have a batch processing sequence that adds a footer of the format "Some text 059"<<page number>>

so the final result should read Some text 059698, Some text 059699 etc.

The problem is that the page number entry won't let me put in any more than 3 digits, so that when it gets to 999 it then goes to 0591000 instead of letting me put in 5 digits so I can number correctly.

Also, as I need to sequentially number several documents, I would like to stop it prompting at each document so i dont have to note down the number of pages to add on to the previous figure, and just have it number the whole lot in one go.

Hope all this makes sense,

Thanks
