Export File Names with Dashes

How do I tell Illustrator to NOT put dashes in the file names when I save for web and to JPG or PNG, etc. etc.? I take them out, only to have Illustrator put them right back in. I can understand if this is for people creating images specifically for websites, whereby spaces are invalid for file names, but I'm not and I happen to like my spaces, thank you very much! Frustrated.

You can export a file, so that the version name is used as the filename for the exported file. So you would have to open each Faces stack and rename the versions in this with a custom name preset, where you add the name of the person to the custom name.
A lot of work.
If you export the an image version with a named face, Aperture 3.5.1 will add the name as a keyword to the exported file. Perhaps the keyword will suffice for your purpose?

Export file names with Face name?

There doesn't appear to be a way to do this from what I can tell but I figured I'd ask. I'd like the export photos so the name of the file is the person's name. Possible?

Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File - Export - Album name with number).

Why does iPhoto (9.0/11) not retain the Event name when exporting more than one event? (using File -> Export -> Album name with number).
Exporting a single Event retains the Event name which is what I'd expect. But highlighting more than one event and exporting it renames the images to Events 001.JPG, Event 002.JPG etc.
I was recently on holidays and had all my events nicely split on Dad's computer but when I went to export it I couldn't retain any of this information. Now I have to replicate this all again on my computer.
It wasn't possible to export the entire library as the external drive was fat32 format an I didn't want all of it. It would be nice to export a bunch of events to someone and have it retain the name.
Does anyone have a work around or will this be fixed at some point by Apple?

Changing an export file name by using a time stamp

Hello Everyone,
I am trying to create a way, utilizing the Report Attributes/Report Export field, to have an export file created with a time stamp associated with the file name.
The reason for this is that I have users who will do multiple exports to Excel from a single parameters driven report. As opposed to manually giving the file a unique name each time the export occurs, I would like to give the export a time stamp as part of the name therefore making it unique.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

I found the typo mm instead of MM which was my problem from the beginning. MM represents month not mm. A simple mistake that costed a lot of time. Thanks Mike
Cheers, you're very welcome. Glad I could help out.

Add report parameter to the export file name

is it possible to pass a report parameter(s) as a file name when saving an export?
eg if I have a list of cars AUDI,MAZDA,BMW,TATA on a multi select drop down and I search for BMW,MAZDA so is it possible for me when i'm clicking on my export to have BMW,MAZDA as a filename without renaming it

Hi waras,
We can use report Viewer control that shipped with Visual Studio to achieve your requirement. For more details, please refer to the following blog:
http://www.jimandkatrin.com/CodeBlog/post/Setting-export-file-name-in-SSRS-report-viewer.aspx
If we are using SSRS in standalone way, Reporting Services does not supports automatically rename the filename with parameter name when export a report.
Personally, I think the requirement is a good point. Additionally, if you have any concern about this, please submit a feedback at
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/Feedback. Connect site is a connection point between you and Microsoft, and ultimately the larger community. Your feedback enables Microsoft to make software

Thank you for your understanding.

Change file name with oreilly servlet

I am using oreilly servlet package and I want to change the file name to the file I am uploading, is this possible ?
How ?
Thanks.
here I post the servlet code:
package com.reducativa.sitio.servlets;

* decoding the incoming multipart/form-data stream

public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
response.setContentType("text/plain");
out.println("Demo Parser Upload Servlet");
File dir = new File("f:/");
if (! dir.isDirectory()) {
throw new ServletException("Supplied uploadDir " + "f:/ " +
" is invalid");
try {
MultipartParser mp = new MultipartParser(request, 10*1024*1024); // 10MB
Part part;
while ((part = mp.readNextPart()) != null) {
String name = part.getName();
if (part.isParam()) {
// it's a parameter part
ParamPart paramPart = (ParamPart) part;
String value = paramPart.getStringValue();
out.println("param; name=" + name + ", value=" + value);
else if (part.isFile()) {
// it's a file part
FilePart filePart = (FilePart) part;
String fileName = filePart.getFileName();
if (fileName != null) {
// the part actually contained a file
long size = filePart.writeTo(dir);
out.println("file; name=" + name + "; filename=" + fileName +

}

Hi there,
I am facing the same problem that you have stated in your Feb 26, 2002 10:28 AM message regarding "change file name with oreilly servlet", I would like to change the file name to include a unique identifier upon upload, did you ever find a solution to your problem?

File name with symbols won't delete from trash.cache\trash\cache folder.

found this weird file name with symbols (squares nad the like) in the trash.cache\trash\cache folder. Can't seem to delete it from windows, can't get at from the dos prompt. Windows safe mode won't delete it.
Any suggestions as to what it is and how to get rid of it.
At present am trying reinstall of firefox and virus scan.
Thanks

I tried to do the instructions Adobe gave me but when
I put in the disc that came with my mac and hold down
C when it restarts it takes me to the screen to do a
fresh install.
At that point go to the Menu & select Disk Utility - I can't remember exactly which menu but you should be able to find it easily... there isn't too much there
I went into the disk utility through the Apps folder
and for somereason the option to repair isnt
highlighted and it wont let me click it. I tried to
repair permissions/verify but it doesnt change
anything. I looked at the info and it says the volume
can be repaired, but it wont let me.
You can't Repair the disk the system is currently running the OS from - That's why you have to boot from the Installer disk (or some other start-up disk). Repair Disk addresses directory structure issues - totally separate from what Repair Permissions does.

File name with Dateand time stamp.

Hi All,
I want to generate a file with a date and time stamp.
For that in File Receiver adaptor i am using option "Add Time Stamp" in File Construction mode. however it is generationg file name as: FileName_20082104_121211_645.txt . In this I don't know what these last three characters "_645" are? And In the File name i only want a file name with datetime stamp . I don't require underscore in between. for eg: FileName_20082104121211.txt (FileName_dateTime.txt)
Can anybody suggest me the way to achive this?
Thanks,
Atul

@FileName_20082104_121211_645
The date time stamp in XI's file adapter will be in that format. This is to avoid over writing of files created simultaneously at the same time. So the last 3 digits is a form of an unique id to distinguish between the same.
In case you want the format as FileName_20082104_121211, use the dynamic configuration and create the file name inside the mapping itself and pass it across.
To get an idea about the same, ref:
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/11/10/xi-the-same-filename-from-a-sender-to-a-receiver-file-adapter--sp14 - an usage of the same.

MimeBodyPart.getFileName() returns file name with directory path.

Hi
The documentation says getFileName() returns filename ,not including directory components. But it is returning
path like Eserv generic/mails/a.html. Can it return a full path in some mail servers?
Please respond.
Thanks

The documentation says getFileName() returns filename ,not including directory components.I think you must be misinterpreting the documentation. Where did you read that?
The getFileName method returns whatever the sender sent as a file name. The send should
send only a simple file name, with no directory components, but they can send anything, and
you should protect against abuse before using such a file name.

Using the regex to match the file name with date time

Hello all,
currently I had problem to match the following file name with the date time. Of course I can use this regex like ""(\\\\w+|.+).(zip)" to match it. However in the current application i need to parse the file name and get the current date time to check if it is matched. Does anyone have good idea?
{code}
testfile10-08-09-2008-08-21-04-24-0443.zip
testfile11-08-09-2008-08-22-04-24-0441.zip
{code}
thanks in advanced!

- with "\\\\w" you probably meant "\\w";
- "\\w+|.+" doesn't make sense: you can simply do ".+" in that case;
- ".(zip)" will also match the string "%zip" or "Ezip".
However in the current application i need to parse the file name and get the current date time to check if it is matched. I don't know what you mean by that.

Encoding failed in "file name" with error: -43

Hi!
I've tried everything but still, after about 20 hours of encoding DVD Studio Pro just stoppes, saying "encoding failed in "file name" with error: -43". The movie is in DV PAL format and made in Final Cut Pro version 5. I'm using DVD Studio Pro 4.0. The movie is about 1 hour and 30 minutes long and I'm trying to put it on a double layer DVD. I've tried to shorten it (it was nearly 2 hours before), but that didn't help. I also tried to shorten it even more and put it on a single layer DVD, but still the same message.
So if somebody has any idea of how I can solve this problem, please let me know as soon as possible!
Thank you!

Error -43 means "File not found." If you are compressing from a reference movie, make sure that all referenced movie clips are present on the disk and that permission settings are not preventing DVD Studio Pro from accessing them.
Error -1309 means "Out of bounds." This means that the source file is pretending to be bigger than it actually is.
So it sounds like there are issues with your source movie.
P.S. Compressor has a much better MPEG-2 encoder and I would recommend using that instead.

When I open up an e-mail attachment a box pops up PRINT TO FILE below that line OUTPUT FILE NAME with an empty line for the file name vs. simply going to my default printer?

when I open up an e-mail attachment a box pops up PRINT TO FILE below that line OUTPUT FILE NAME with an empty line for the file name vs. simply going to my default printer?

Make sure that '''''Print to File''''' isn't selected in the native print dialog box ''(see screenshot below)'' middle-right, and make sure your Printer is selected at the top of that dialog box.
''I'm a little confused why an email attachment would need to go directly to the printer, but that's what you asked about.''
