To batch-rename files with Bridge
You can rename files and folders in a group, or batch. When you batch-rename files, you can choose the same settings
for all the selected files, saving time.
1 Do one of the following:
• Select the files that you want to rename.
• Select a folder in the Folders panel. The new setting will apply to all the files in the folder.
2 Choose Tools > Batch Rename.
3 Set the following options and click Rename:
• For Destination Folder, select whether you want to place the renamed files in the same folder or in a different
folder, move them to another folder, or place a copy in another folder. If you select Move To Other Folder or Copy
To Other Folder, click Browse to select the folder.
• For New Filenames, choose elements from the menus or enter text into the text boxes. The specified elements and
text are combined to create the new file name. You can click the + button or - button to add or delete elements. A
preview of the new file name appears at the bottom of the dialog box.
Note: If you choose Sequence Number, enter a number. The number is automatically incremented for each file named.
• Select Preserve Current File Name In XMP Metadata if you want to retain the original file name in the metadata.
• For Compatibility, select the operating systems with which you want renamed files to be compatible. The current
operating system is selected by default, and you can’t deselect it.
