Try this:

 

event.value = this.documentFileName.replace(/\.pdf$i/, "");

 

However, this will not execute when the file is opened. To do that you would need to add the following code under Tools - JavaScript - Document JavaScripts (NOT inside of a function):

 

this.calculateNow();

 

Also note that this won't work in Reader, only in Acrobat.
