Publishing - Merged PDF Autotext name

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

Is there a way of creating the name of a merged PDF in a publisher set from the Project info?

I have tried using the auto text e.g. <PROJECTNAME>, but that doesn't work.

The 'Rename Items', option just renames the pages within the set, but does not allow me to do the same for the overall file name. Anyone have an option that works?

Which Archicad version are you using?
I have just tried it in Archicad 23 and it is working for me.

Hi,

I think that I have found why this is not working for user who created this topic.

There is a difference for folders which are as a shortcut from the rest of project navigator (view map and layouts) and for folders that we can create manually in publisher set.

For shortcuts, the autotexts (e.g. <PROJECTNAME>) works fine, but if you put this auto text on folder which is created manually (not a shortcut) the "<PROJECTNAME>" will be exported. I've tested it on version from 23 to 26.
I`m not sure why this is happening but from my understanding there is no connection of manually created folders to the project info therefore it is not going to use the auto texts. But I don't understand why the system info (datum, time, path file etc.) are not working too.
