How to export file with original filename number suffix, but with more digits

Is there a way to keep the original filename number suffix, but change the formatting of the number, adding leading zeros for instance?
When I import photos from my camera I like to rename them, and give them sequential numbers, e.g. "2015-01 Hamburg 1.cr2", "2015-01 Hamburg 2.cr2", "2015-01 Hamburg 10.cr2", .. "2015-01 Hamburg 134.cr2", and so on.
Normally when I export photos I like to keep the file names exacly as I imported them (except the extension) e.g. 2015-01 Hamburg 1.jpg, "2015-01 Hamburg 2.jpg", .. "2015-01 Hamburg 10.jpg", .. "2015-01 Hamburg 134.jpg".
But sometimes I would like to export them with leading zeros, typically when adding photos to a web site or blog where there are sort mechanisms that only support simple sort algorithms based on file names, meaning the sort order of my photos with their original file names would become "2015-01 Hamburg 1.jpg, "2015-01 Hamburg 10.jpg", .. "2015-01 Hamburg 134.jpg", "2015-01 Hamburg 2.jpg".
So I would like the file names to be "2015-01 Hamburg 001.jpg", "2015-01 Hamburg 002.jpg", "2015-01 Hamburg 010.jpg", "2015-01 Hamburg 134.jpg".
By keeping the original file number suffix I can easily go back to the original file whenever I need to, and the sort order would work even with simple sorting.
The export Filename Template Editor gives quite advanced support for numbering files when exporting, see attached screenshot. There's support for exporting files with custom file names, and adding sequence, total and image number with padding (up to 9999/####). But those add new numbers, they do not consider the original filename number suffix. If I use the "Image # (001)" for instance, my example above would export as "2015-01 Hamburg 001.jpg", "2015-01 Hamburg 002.jpg", "2015-01 Hamburg 003.jpg", "2015-01 Hamburg 004.jpg", if those were the four photos I wanted to export, making it hard for me to trace them back to the original photo.
I have found no way of adding such padding on the original file number.
Does anyone know if this is possible or have suggestions for a workaround?
It shouldn't be too hard for Adobe to support this I'd imagine.

I do not know if you can do what you explained above, but there is a workaround to this (and a way to avoid having to do it in the future):
In the Library module, make sure your images are sorted by Capture Date (this will put them in the right order, even with suffixes like 1, 13, etc.)
Select all images, and then Rename them, using a Custom text followed by a Sequence number. The Custom text in this case should be the original name (such as, 2015-01 Hamburg, as in your example). Make sure the Sequence number is formatted with enough zeroes to include all the numbers in your images.
In the future, when you rename images during Import, make sure you select the Sequence number format that will include all the needed zeroes, so you don't have to go through this again.

  • How to export file with specific KB/s for video?

    Just wondering how to go about doing this. I want a file to be exported with 188 KB/s video. and the audio 128kbps in h.264.

    I have to admit, you found an interesting way to confuse my friend Jim.
    You see, people just don't use KB/s, they use Mb/s or even Kb/s but using 188KB/s means that most of us have to multiply by eight to get a number we are used to, then divide by 1024.
    So, 188 X 8 = 1504Kb/s or about 1.47Mb/s. Which is pretty small for  video in this day and age, but so be it. That is their recommendation.
    (If anyone wants to argue about the 1024 vs 1000, don't. I can argue both sides for you.)
    http://pc.net/helpcenter/answers/kbps_or_mbps_faster
    https://support.speedtest.net/entries/21057567-What-do-mbps-and-kbps-mean-
    To set the export bit rate you will want to type in 1.47Mb/s but you won't be happy comparing it to a higher quality YouTube video. Darn, who would have even thought I would ever type " higher quality YouTube video" and not be kidding?

  • How to export files with metadata information displayed?

    I want to wash my .jpg files through LR 5 in order to display the filenames.  Via the Slideshow module I have been able to select and direct the displaying of the desired metadata option.  When I export the files the displayed metadata information does not make the trip.  Any assistance is appreciated.

    I have given my filenames descriptors, for instance, 0000100 - Jerry rock climbing in Custer State Park SD.  Importing into Lightroom allows me to display the filename metadata.  Exporting the files generated in Lightroom to Photoshop Elements allows me to then create a slideshow in which I have more audio flexibilities.

    If you look around the forum for a bit, you will see that there is no notion of file systems on JavaCards (lexdabear posted this information less than two hours ago :-)). To store files, you will have to write an applet to hold byte arrays of the required size and handle receiving and sending of these.
    As for documentation, you should have a look at the GP (General Platform) specification at http://www.globalplatform.org/, which defines communication between smart cards and other devices, as well as Sun's own JavaCard pages (http://java.sun.com/products/javacard/), which contain several useful resources on JavaCards.

  • Sum Encrypt does not recognize a copy of a file through linux. How decrypt this file with Sum Encrypt?

    Sum Encrypt does not recognize a copy of a file through linux to Mac 0S9. How decrypt this file with Sum Encrypt?

    Hello, and welcome to Apple Support Communities!
    I am not familiar with the program that you list, however files in OS 9 use things called Resource Forks (rather than file extensions) for filetype and creator.
    If you sent a file through Linux these resource forks probably got stripped and now the file is nothing to your Macintosh.
    It is best to BinHex your files (.hqx) before leaving the HFS file system so that their resource forks are preserved.

  • How to export strings with "\"

    When I export a string with backslashes in it (eg. path name to a file) then when this file is imported at run time then backslashes '\' cause the import to fail. So for now I have to replace all "xxx\yyy" strings in exported file with "xxx\\yyy" and then import
    of such MODIFIED file goes OK.
    But this is tedious - is there another way to deal with it ?

    This is caused by the fact that the ASCII backslash character is the escape code specifier, and when the file is read by the import/export properties tool it is treated as such. If you have any character sequences in a string such as "\t" or "\n" these get interpreted as tabs and newlines within the string.
    To avoid this behavior when importing you will need to modify the strings in TestStand before exporting them to include the "\\" escape code set to the file. The caveat to this is once these values are read back from the file they will be interpreted as single backslashes. For instance, if you export "c:\\temp", and then import it back you will get "c:\temp". This is simply the nature of the Import/Export Properties tool.
    If you do not like the b
    ehavior of this tool in its shipping form, you can rebuild the "limitloader.dll" module to include the functionality that you want. Whenever you click the Tools>>Import/Export Properties menu selection, the MainSequence of \Components\NI\Tools\ImportExport.seq is being executed. This has a single step in it that calls the "DisplayImportExportDialog" function of the limitloader.dll. The source for the limitloader.dll can be found in the \Components\NI\StepTypes\Database directory.

  • How Merge Temp File With Photoshop File

    Hi Friends,

    Thank you So Much

    You can search for recovery programs  but most likely if it a temp file is not an image file.  You could also try renaming the file to have an image file type and try to open with Photoshop. Again its most likely not an image file. Photoshop only supports some image files formats.

  • Is there a way to open CSV files with more than 255 columns?

    I have a CSV file with more than 255 columns of data.  It's a fairly standard export of social media data that shows volume of posts by day for the past year, from which I can analyze the data and publish customized charts. Very easy in Excel but I'm hitting the Numbers limit of 255 columns per table. Is there a way to work around the limitation? Perhaps splitting the CSV in two? The data shows up in the CSV file when I open via TextEdit, so it's there. Just can't access it in Numbers. And it's not very usable/useful for me in TextEdit.
    Regards,
    Tim

    You might be better off with Excel. Even if you could find a way to easily split the CSV file into two tables, it would be two tables when you want only one.  You said you want to make charts from this data.  While a series on a chart can be constructed from data in two different tables, to do so takes a few extra steps for each series on the chart.
    For a test to see if you want to proceed, make two small tables with data spanning the tables and make a chart from that data.  Make the chart the normal way using the data in the first table then repeat the following steps for each series
    Select the series in the chart
    Go to Format sidebar
    Click in the "Value" box
    Add a comma then select the data for this series from the second chart
    Press Return
    If there is an easier way to do this, maybe someone else will chime in with that info.
