Option to give a different name to the attached file

[paolo-santucci]

Hi @akosbalasko, I’m just trying your import tool: it’s really good!

I’m using a Fujitsu ScanSnap with Evernote and never bothered to rename the PDF files, so they’re a mess! Could you please add an option to save the attached file with the same name as the note?

Hi @perfidopelato !
Sure thing, but please note that we have to cover the case when a note contains multiple attachments, so I would add an index to the file name as well. For example:
if ThisIsMyNote note

• contains 1 attachment named a.pdf, then it will be renamed to ThisIsMyNote.pdf
• contains 2 attachments (a.pdf, b.pdf), then they will be renamed to ThisIsMyNote.1.pdf and ThisIsMyNote.2.pdf

How about this?

I think it’s perfect, thank you!

[akosbalasko]

Cool, okay, I implement it, thanks for the idea!
I keep you updated.

Has this been implemented? I just tried the Windows version of yarle today for the first time and came here to ask for that feature, as I couldn't see it anywhere in the app's UI options.

+1 This would be a useful bonus feature.
