File Naming Tab

 
The file naming tab allows you to determine the name of new files created through batch processing. You are allowed to add up to six naming articles, or segments, consisting of the original file name, the date, serial number or custom text.
 


Article   What is It?
 Current Name  The original filename without the extension. PhotoFrame will always add the proper extension to the end of the filename.

Example: DSC007
Current Name and Extension  The original filename and extension. PhotoFrame will always add the proper extension to the end of the filename. Use this option if would like to add the original extension to the file name as well as the current extension.

Example: DSC007.jpg
 Text  A line of text of your choice up to 32 characters long. This could be a job or client name or anything you like.

Example: whateverIwant
 Serial Number  A numerical serial number. It may be up to eight digits long and supports leading zeros. You can specify any number to start with. Each file will be numbered sequentially starting with your first number.

Example: 0001
 Date Todays date in YYMMDD format.

Example: 070926

Here are some examples of ways you can name your batch processed files.
