Exporting a jpg with a '-0#' after it

[Holliewood]

Just in the last week I've noticed that when I export a jpg it doesn't add the '-0#' at the end of the file name when there is only one artboard. It used to save as "File name-01.jpg". Now it just saves as "File name.jpg". So when I add an artboard it will then save as "File name-01.jpg" and "File name-02.jpg", but not save over the original file. Leaving 2 files that are the same but named slightly different. Not sure if something updated, but I want it to always save with the '-0#' like it used to. Any help would be appreciated!

Hello @Holliewood,

I would like to inform you this is an intended change in the latest version of Illustrator to accommodate the request on this UserVoice (https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-feature-requests/suggestions/31723057-wh...).

The workaround is to rename the file name while exporting a specific artboard.

However, If you do not like this change, you may upvote this UserVoice (https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/45508540-name-a...) and add your comment here.

I hope this helps.

Thanks,

Anubhav

It's on purpose? How disappointing, I hope they return it to its original way. Thank you for the link, I voted!
