Action Wizard auto-rename PDF files based on content

Hi,

 

I have been looking for an option on how to automatically rename a PDF file after it being split. The renaming should be based on each specific PDF files content. 

After having googled around I stumbled upon something called Action Wizard, where people have had an option "Auto-rename" under the "More" tool. However, I cannot find this tool within my package. I tried to find and download it here: https://acrobatusers.com/actions-exchange/?trackingid=JZXYQ but I cannot find it. 

Is it possible to use the Action Wizard Auto-rename program to help me with my split PDF files, and how do I download it?

Try [Wildcard Batch File Renamer] available in Windows Store.

This has some of the abilities you are looking for and much more.

Good luck

The Action Wizard in Acrobat can't rename files. It can only save them under a new name, leaving the original file in place.

That is completely fine. I would easily be able to mass delete all of the original files, as long as the copies stay
