P: A way to alter the naming for Enhanced filename suffixes

My workflow for Adobe Denoise.

  1. Edit RAW image in Lightroom
  2. Use Denoise AI which saves and changes my file name – adds Enhanced-NR
  3. Open the DGN in Photoshop and do more edits
  4. Close DGN and it saves my default LR file type as a layered TIF.
  5. Delete the DGN and rename the tif.

Step 6 is a pain. I haven’t figured out a fast way to get rid of the extra words “Enhanced-NR” in the file name.

And if I use Lightroom to export the DGN as a TIF it flattens the layers created in Photoshop - not good.

I just delete the "enhanced" part and leave a dash or underscore

Proposta migliorativa 

Utilizzo spesso la funzione "Migliora" per ridurre il disturbo con ISO alto, ottento il file migliorato DNG compare la dicitura "Migliorato NR" accanto al nome del file e questo per identificare il file in manienra veloce e fin qui tutto bene.
Il mio problema nasce quando vado ad esportare i file in JPG perché vorrei avre il nome senza la dicitura "Migliorato NR "ma ad oggi questo non esiste.
Sarebbe utile in futuro aggiungere nella scheda "esporta = Denominazione File = Rinomina in:" la possibilità di scegliere la cancellazione di tale dicitura e avere un file tipo  ABC001.jpg

That's why I said copy the files over to a folder ready to send. You're not sending your originals?

 

To be honest, I have a little trouble relating to this, because I would never, ever, ever, send away raw files. You never know what people will do with them, possibly with your name on it. But apparently there are situations where you're required to do that.

As all these ideas are viable in theory and application. The problem is it separates the file from the original. Hence negating the nondestructive philosophy. Nondestructive should not only be for the image itself, but for the renaming process as well.

Naturally, you'd copy the files over to a folder ready to send. That's where you rename.

Bridge is not suitable for renaming enhanced files. If you rename imagefiles in other apllications then lightroom, your LrC-catalog won't find your imagefiles anymore...

The only way to rename them safely is in LrC, but you can do it only file by file.

Bridge is a step I never use. I haven't used bridge in decades. I'm not about to start doing it now. I'm hoping Adobe fixes this.

I've actually considered learning enough Lua to write a renaming plugin that would handle this and let me rename files in Develop mode. Of all the boneheaded design choices, that has to be one of the worst. I already hate the modal design but having the modes actually work differently is just &$%&) stupid.

Actually, if you have Bridge installed, you can batch rename there. Set it like this, hit go and sit back:

Yes, everyone has a different process and different kinds of files. I just need the last four digits of my RAW file to be incorporated so the client and I can find it in the future.

 

I do so many images (at least 12 TB per quarter) and so many corporate photo shoots that one off name changing is not an option. Just need Adobe to give us a workaround.

 

I think most people are in the same boat as I am, regardless of whether you're doing amateur, business-to-business, or business-to-public photography. I'm business-to-business, and I have clients who are very specific and demanding about what they receive and how they receive it.
