Batch Rename

    Note:
    • If you change a Batch rename preset outside of the Workflow builder and if that preset is referred to in a Workflow, the changes done in the Batch rename preset will be honored
    • If you delete a Batch rename preset outside of the Workflow builder, that preset reference will be lost in the Workflow.
  • New File Name: Choose elements from the menus and enter the text as appropriate to create new filenames. Click the Plus icon (+) or Delete icon ( ) to add or delete elements.
  • Options: Select Preserve Current Filename In XMP Metadata to retain the original filename in the metadata. For Compatibility, select the operating systems with which you want renamed files to be compatible. The current operating system is selected by default, and cannot be deselected.
