Creating a renaming template
On the Output Options page of the Get Photos Wizard, you can set up a template to rename your files as they are placed on your hard drive. You can create a template with a numerical sequence, add custom text, and insert file-specific information into each new file name.
To use a renaming template:
On the Output Options page of the Get Photos Wizard, click Edit.
In the Edit File Name Template dialog box, do one or both of the following:
In the Template field, type a word or phrase to use in each file name.
Click the Insert Property button and select specific properties to add to each file name. The property is added as a placeholder, e.g., <Date>. When the file is renamed, the actual date is inserted into the file name.
Click the Insert Sequence Number button to add number signs to your template. Any number signs (#) in the template are replaced with sequential numeric characters, starting at the number you specified in the wizard. For example, if you enter ###, the first photo copied will be numbered 001, the next 002, and so on.
Click OK to return to the wizard.
