Naming scans

[droid scan dev]

Q:

Hello, could you please tell me how I can name the files I'm scanning?

A:

Each PDF created by Droid Scan is saved on the SD card in the "Droid Scan Extras" folder. Droid Scan gives the scan a unique name automatically, based on the date and time when it is created.

There are three ways to give a scan a custom name:

1. In the process of sharing the scan, you will typically be given a chance to give it a new name (ie with Google Docs Upload, Evernote, Box.net, and so on).

2. The new Export to SD card feature in Droid Scan 4.3 allows you to choose a name.

3. You can also open the "Droid Scan Extras" folder with a file manager or a PDF viewer and rename files freely. A variety of free PDF viewers and file managers that support this function are available in the Android Market.
