Action Wizard auto-rename PDF files based on content

New Here ,
Mar 28, 2023 Mar 28, 2023

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?

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

A custom-made script will have to be written to match your specific needs.

If you're interested in hiring a professional to create it for you, feel free to contact me privately by clicking my user-name and then on "Send a Message".
