Filename

String – can contain a reference to workflow variables

The name of the resulting scanned file (without an extension). Process, capture, and user input variables may be used. If scan workflow produces multiple files, the filename is appended with a numeric sequence in the "####" format, e.g., "0001", "0002", etc.

Please keep in mind the character's limitations that are permitted to be in file names. Characters that are not allowed (*, ?, /, \, |, :, <, >) will cause failure upon scanned file delivery.

If the filename field is left blank, the filename generated by the device where the scan was made is used.

If filename already exists

  • Keep both files: If a file with the same name already exists, Dispatcher Paragon creates a new file with a numeric sequence in the "_#####" format, e.g., "filename_00001", "filename_00002", etc. No files are deleted in this case
  • Replace original file:  Replaces the original file with the new one
  • Append to the original file (PDF only*)
  • Prepend to the original file (PDF only*)

* PDF/A-2x formats are not supported

Determines the behavior applied if a file with the same name already exists in the target directory
