Change filenames during batch-processing

  1. Select Rename from the Batch Options list and click Add.

  2. Specify Rename options at the bottom of the Batch Process dialog box:

    Replace With
    Lets you replace characters in each filename with different characters that you specify, or you can delete characters from each filename. For example, if you have files named Temp_123.jpg, Temp_124.jpg, and Temp_125.jpg, you can replace “Temp_12” with “Birthday,” thus changing the filenames to Birthday3.jpg, Birthday4.jpg, and Birthday5.jpg.

    Replace Blanks With
    Lets you replace existing blanks in the filename with a character or characters you specify, or you can delete all blanks from each filename. For example, files named Pic nic.jpg and Slap stick.jpg can be changed to Picnic.jpg and Slapstick.jpg, or Pic-nic.jpg and Slap-stick.jpg.

    Add Prefix
    Lets you enter text to add to the beginning of the filename. For example, if you enter “night_”, then the file Sunrise.gif is renamed night_Sunrise.gif when it is batch‑processed.

    Add Suffix
    Lets you enter text to add to the end of the filename before the filename extension. For example, if you enter “_day”, then the file Sunset.gif is renamed Sunset_day.gif when it is batch‑processed.
    Note: For each changed filename, you can do any combination of Replace, Replace blanks, Add Prefix, and Add Suffix. For example, you could replace “Temp” with “Party,” remove all blanks, and add a prefix and a suffix, all at the same time.

  3. Click Next to continue the batch process.
