Question
we have more than 100.000 docuents saved as pic on our network at work by using ( Laser Fiche). I wanted to save all files by using acrobat distiller but when i try to print a file i was prompted to enter a file name! but i don't want to... i want the distiller create a file name automatially.
in the preferencesd i unchecked ( ask for PDF .. ) but the problem is that all files saved were overwritten because distiller was imporing the file name from Laser Fich!
how can I make distiller ( autoname files like 0001 0002 0003 and so on) ?
Hello Ali,
I believe that older versions (possibly 5) did have a provision to allow you to add a prefix or suffix to files that were processed via a hot folder. With later versions this needs to be done using Acrobat Server using hotfolders or manually.
Thanks,
