Rename when extracting pages from a document or renaming a new document that aint saved yet

Post by runeterkel »

Hi

It could be a very nice feature to be able to rename a document when extracting pages to a new document.
I often extract pages from a manual to send an extract to a dealer, with only a few pages in.
But I don't save the extracted pages only send them by mail and then discard the extracted document.
But I can't rename the document before sending it by mail only if I save the document first.

Hello runeterkel,

Welcome to our forums.
This option that you have selected in the drop down menu will create a NEW document that is not saved to disk - and as such a file name can not be specified for it at the moment of extraction - as there's no document yet (nor there would be one created after the extraction process and before you actually save that file to disk. That's why the option to "name" such newly created files is not present. Just select the second entry in the same drop down menu and you would then be able to specify a name:

Yes - this second option will save a file locally, but you can e.g. save it to your desktop so that it's quick and easy to remove it once you've e-mailed it.

Kind regards,
Stefan
