Specifying PDF output file names
You can use a template to specify how PDF file names are formatted during the PDF split
operation. To create a template, click Create Template next to the Output Filename
Template field on the VIPO Job Submission Client window. The Create an Output
Filename Template window appears.
Template syntax
Template syntax must be enclosed within matching < >. All other characters, other than
characters that are invalid for file names and those described here, are treated as literal
characters in the resulting output file name generated by VIPO.
By default, “strict filename checking” is performed on filename templates. These
characters are considered invalid:
\ / : * ? " < > | ' ` ~ ! $ ^ & , ; [ ] { } ( ) % # = + @ tab and blank space
You can modify the default behavior by setting the following value in the VIPO
configuration file (xvtp.ini):
output_filename_strict_checking=false
