Photoshop: How to handle numbering a large amount of disorganized items?

问题

Suppose I have a large campsite like "seating" chart with several hundred lots sectioned off and outlined in photoshop. (each lot is roughly a square) Every lot needs to be numbered in photoshop and also editable in the future in case of changes. The lots are scattered and curve around the landscape so entering text in one layer seems out since for example lot 27 with be on the right and rotate 20 degrees to match the lot and yet lot 185 might be way over on the left at a far different angle.

Is there an elegant way to do this or at least quickly import a large number sequence that places one number per layer so I can grab them and orient them to their corresponding lot quickly instead of typing out and then positioning ever number individually? I'm having trouble thinking up an elegant/fast way to handle this in Photoshop...

You can do it with Extendscript. I am not the best of Extendscript programmers, but the following script will ask you for the number of text labels you want and add that many numbers on sepearate layers. Of course, you can diddle around with the font, colour, position, size etc. but it should get you started.

Here is an example - I turned off layers 4 and 5 so you can see each number is on a new layer.

Here it asks how many numbers you want:

// Version: 0.1

// Installation:
// 1. Place script in 'C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS#\Presets\Scripts\'
// 2. Restart Photoshop
// 3. Choose File > Scripts > AddNumbers

// enable double-clicking from Mac Finder or Windows Explorer
