Filenames when exporting

Question

When I export images or batch export images, Fireworks always
renames
them with all lowercase letters. I don't want this, I want it
to keep
the same format as the original file. I can't see anyway to
do this,
does anyone know how to cure this?
Cheers,
Steve

You can save as BUT you wont' get the same file size. Save or
Save AS
will retain or reserve file space for meta data. So your
files will be
about 13 k larger than if you had exported them. Also, if you
save as
BEFORE you export, the meta data is not stripped during
export (a known
bug).
