customizing the automatic file naming format during PDF publishing or printing

Hello,

I'm pretty sure this is a straightforward question:
How do I customize the automatic file naming format? I'd like to re-order where the page number goes, as well as add inputs from the Layout Info like the status code input.

Thank you!

If you have your Publisher Set displayed in the Navigator, you can right-click any PDf item in the list and choose the "Rename Item" command. Then you can use some Autotexts to define what the name of the resulting PDF files will be like.
