LR Classic - Export - File Renaming by photo order

Hi there!

 

I'm using custom order to rearrange the photos of a session. On export I'm applying watermarks but the export is done in two stages, one for portrait and one more for landscape. If I use rename by sequence, I don't have the custom order set in the exported files due to the dual export.

 

Is there any way to rename the photos on export by the custom order number?

    Do the following

     

    1. Export them all to a separate folder with the correct rename sequence.

    2. Reimport these renamed files

    3. Seperately reexport these files with Portrait and Landscape watermarks without renaming.

    I thought about it but I want to avoid multiple exports and imports. Needless to say the loss of quality....
    I was looking for a more convinient solution... a plugin maybe or something

    Although I am sure you will never see the loss of quality of reexporting a JPG file you could always do the first export as a 16bit TIFF full size and the second as a JPG.
