-- In Acrobat, add a form field (type = text field) with the text and 
formatting you like.
In the field properties, you'll be able to choose between: visible | 
visible, not printed | hidden | hidden, printed
(I don't have easy access to Acrobat 5.0.5, so cannot quote the specific 
labels).

-- Choose "hidden but printed".

-- Duplicate the field to all other pages (can done with one action through 
the menu).
