NewsletterHow to set properties for PDF files which contain split characters in names?
Question
I am trying out A-PDF Rename to batch-process a large number of files from our book library, the current filename format is "Author name and surname - Book title.pdf". The file properties I am aiming to are:
[filename] = [filename],
[metadata Title] = the filename part AFTER the "-",
[metadata Author] = the filename part BEFORE the "-".
How can I write script to get the properties changed correctly?
Solution
While adding properties with A-PDF Rename(free download here), you can use below script to get the properties changed correctly based on your request:
Var
p :Integer;
Begin
p := Pos(ReverseString('-'), ReverseString(Filename));
if p > 0 then
newtitle := RightStr(Filename, p - 1);
p := Pos('-', Filename);
if p > 0 then
newauthor := LeftStr(Filename, p - 1);
End.
After inputting, click "Run" and you will get result previewed in the program, as below image shows:
