Any way to keep original file name as image name for web gallery?

Hi,
I wonder if there is any way to keep the original file name as image name for a web gallery (instead of "picture-1.jpg)
People often send us the thumbnails or the image from the web and we have to search forever to find the image in AP - if we could keep our original filename then this would be a second away.
Hope somebody has an idea
thanks

Hi William,
I finally had time to play - unfortunately it does
not work the way you described above.
I´m just exporting a set of images using the "Stock
Black" Theme - marked name only - batched the
filename to masterfile - but the actual picture names
are still "picture-1.jpg" - "picture-2.jpg".
did I miss anything? thanks
I see what you want, you don't care about the screen name so much but want the generated file names to be the same as the version names. From earlier messages though I am not quite sure why this is a problem, since you said other people were picking the images they wanted - say Image1 and 23 and 8. That to me says those people are going through the directory using Finder or Explorer, not using the HTML.
Is it the case you are giving people web galleries on CD? If so, then perhaps also export a "browse" directory with exported images using the version names, so that people can use the right name.
Or perhaps it's the case that people are downloading the images from the web, and then using the downloaded file names to send you requests. I'm not sure how to fix this yet and do not know if 1.1 offers something for this.

  • Using captions (or, hiding file names) for Web Gallery with Aperture 2.0

    Is there a way to add captions to pictures displayed using the Aperture 2.0 web gallery without changing the actual file name? I'd like to keep the file name but add a caption to each photo if possible.
    Thanks

    Hi John
    I'm not making extra versions for this, just using the version name as the name in the web gallery. If you are not already using the version name then it lends itself to web gallery naming nicely. If you are using version names already, perhaps reconsider how necessary this is to you as you are tying up this other potential use.
    My file names all contain a date and index number but I try and use more 'user friendly' version names if part of my final output will be for web galleries. This is good for clients as they don't have complicated names to order, but it's also a cinch to find the files using the search bar in Aperture.
    Hope this helps

  • Is there any way to show the file name super imposed on the slides?

    Is there any way to show the file name super imposed on the slides in Premiere Elements 9?
    I am setting up pictures as slide show along with some movie clips but wanted the desctiptive file names appearing with each picture.
    Thanks!

    Yes. In Timeline mode, you add it to an upper video track as a title.
    I show you the basics of titles in the Basic Training tutorials at Premiere Elements support site Muvipix.com.

  • Tethering in Lightroom with MK III - Can't keep original file names

    Hello,
    I am shooting a Canon Mark III to Lightroom 3.3 with RAW 6.3 on OS 10.5.8.  All I want to do is insert custom text in front of the original file name from the camera.  I cannot even seem to get Lightroom to allow the images to maintain the naming from the camera.  The options "filename", "original file number" and "sequence" all rename the files in accordance with Lightroom preferences.  I want to keep the naming from the camera and simply add custom text in addition to it.  I would be pleased to even learn if Lightroom can accept the name from the camera as it does not seem able to do so.  No matter what I select, input, or leave out, Lightroom seems to rename the file in some way or another. 
    The problem with most of the naming conventions in Lightroom is that the numbers seem to reset when the camera gets turned off.  "Sequence" is the only setting that maintains a consistent and ascending count even if the camera is turned off then back on but it still doesn't reflect the camera settings which most photographers prefer to leave on continuous.  While this affords a temporary solution, it does not fix the issue that we would prefer to see the original filename and number that the camera puts out.  I have tested all the filename settings in Lightroom (including inputting nothing) and can't seem to get the actual original camera written filename to show up.  PLEASE HELP!
    It is hard to imagine that any software this powerful, especially from Adobe, could overlook and fail to execute something so crucial and basic as simply not overwriting the file info from the camera.
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Hello,
    original file name is only stored in the lightroom catalog file. This means, the original filename is stored in your LR4 catalog! After you upgraded to LR5 you simply have to open the LR4 catalog and LR5 will convert the catalog into an LR5 catalog.
    I hope, you still have an LR4 catalog backup (before you removed all images)? Otherwise original file name is lost.

  • File name font (web gallery output)

    I am using CS4 with adobe bridge.  I have created some web galleries and have selected the option to show the file name.  This shows up just below the picture in the gallery.  The problem is the font is too light to show up against my chosen background font.  I am wondering how to change the font color of this file name for the output web gallery.  If anyone knows how to do this, I would greatly appreciate it!!!  Thanks!

    Hi,
    You can change the font colour in the Output Panel, under Color Palette (the order it appears and the options it shows depends on the template you are using). Simply double click the colour swatch sqaure to open up the colour picker and choose a new colour.
    See attached screenshot if you are unsure where to look..

  • Converted to PDF how do I keep original File name??

    Hi
    I've set up a automator action to compress my Microsoft Word Document to PDF and "mail file". How do i keep the original Word document filename that i originally saved as, rather that the "Microsoft Word Document.doc" as it appears in the new email message
    Thanks for any help
    Jonathan

    It is a problem with Microsoft Word. When it sends a print job, it names it "Microsoft Word Document," instead of something useful, like the document name. Since there is no way to capture the name of the original file when you print from the PDF Services menu, I don't see a way to code it.
    A workaround is to add a "Rename Finder Items" action between the compress and Mail actions. Set it to rename a single item and show the action at runtime. You can then type in a name you want.
    I had started working on a method to get the name of the document, but realized the problem that I stated above. Since you are "Printing" from the PDF Services, you don't know the actual document name as Microsoft has "hidden" it.

  • Any way to stop automatic file names?

    When I try to save anything, whatever the cursor happens to point at is inserted as the file name. That is extremely annoying. Either a file already has a name or I will give it the name I want. Is there any way to turn off this feature?

    Hello.
    It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
    If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
    If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.

  • Bridge MUST KEEP ORIGINAL FILES NAMES when creating a web gallery.

    My clients use the galleries I create to download higher resolution images, and now Bridge decides to randomly rename the output images with arbitrary numbers? REALLY? Why on earth would Bridge even NEED to do that? So stupid, please fix, pronto.

    I agree.
    The web gallery is useless this way.

  • Original file turns modified after "Save for Web-"

    Hi everyone!
    I'm with a little question.
    What happens to the edited file after saving its copy using the “Save for Web…” command? Why the original, unmodified file turns into “changed” (with * symbol after its name)?
    P. S. The same behaviour is in the Illustrator.

    It's because the original file did get changed, because the Save for Web settings were changed. Photoshop saves most Save for Web settings so that the next time you use Save for Web, you don't have to set all the options from scratch.
    I tested this by opening a file and using Save for Web without changing any settings, and that time the original document did not ask me to save before closing.

  • Is there any way of making the "cell numbers" smaller on a lightroom web gallery?

    I am new to lightroom having used aperture 3 in the past.
    I am currently trying to create a html web gallery in order to put up some images online for a client. I am really happy with the flexibility of the lightroom galleries.
    However, the cell numbering on the grid pages are very large and the larger the number, the more of the number hides behind the image. I have been searching for a remedy to this problem as there doesn't seem to be any point in having a contact sheet for a client if they can't see what number an image is.
    I have attached a screenshot to illustrate.
    Has anyone else had this problem? Would really appreciate any thoughts.
    Thanks!
    Jack

    Well, you could probably hack the template file itself. I've never done it, but others have restyled markup in a variety of ways.

  • Converting AIF to MP3 and keeping original file name?

    Wondering if this is possible to do using iTunes (if not, i'm open to suggestions). Basically I have a collection of AIFF files named very specifically and I'm looking to convert them to MP3 without changing the names of the actual file (example: POS-01CutThroat.aif becomes POS-01CutThroat.mp3) but still keep all the metadata of the AIF in the MP3 (title, composers, comments etc...)
    If anyone has any clue as to what i'm talking about, or even better can help me out, please let me know
    Thanks!

    I have two suggestions:
    1. Use the Sundry Info to Comments script to add the filename to the Comment field, then use the File Renamer script to rename the files based on the comment field after you’ve ripped them. Obviously, this will only work if you don’t have other info that needs to be in that field.
    2. Rip your files using Max, which gives you a lot more flexibility than iTunes in terms of how the files are named and tagged. This will also produce better sounding MP3 files, because unlike iTunes, it uses the LAME standard.
    Personally, I would go with suggestion #2.

  • Easy Way To Change The Original File Name??

    I store all my music and videos on iTunes. I just got a AT&T Tilt and I have to use WMP to sync to it. I can't drag and drop iTunes playlists into my media card cause my Tilt uses Windows.
    My main problem with WMP is even though I edit the song/video name, it still syncs over the original file name. If I change the original file name for WMP then I have to rename it for iTunes cause when I go back to iTunes to play the song/video, it says the file is missing. It's a pain
    For example, in my iTunes music foler in My Music, I have a song file named Britney_Pieceofme.mp3. I edit the name of the song and artist to Britney Spears Piece Of Me but when I sync it to my phone, the original file name appears.
    Thanks!

    I think you may need to "look" into the song to see what information is contained in the mp3 tag. WMP automatically sees that information and will store the song at the name in the tag. To solve your problem, you will need an mp3 tag editor (google search) where you can change the tags on your songs, then put them on your Tilt. I think/hope this solves your problem.

  • Is there a way to alter the file name given to the attachments in an email button?

    When ever I click the standard email button, I get an attachement with random alfa and numeric characters for the file name.  Is there any way to change the files names to match a data field in the form or start with something I choose?
    Thanks,

    Hi RudyLou36,
    While viewing the form in Preview TAB of LC Designer you will always get the junk characters as the name of the file. Save the file and open it in Acrobat or Reader.
    You won't be able to change the filename unless you save the file first. Here (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/462681) is an example of a number of ways to deal with parts of the email programatically.
