Hi
I have almost a 1000 images i need to reduce in size and ‘save for web’ with exactly the same file name. Trouble is some of these images have long names and photoshop (version 7) seems to clip the file name down when i save it.
E.g
Big-Ben-748578436583474689.jpg Becomes Big-Ben-7485784365834746.jpg

Is there a setting in photoshop I can change to stop it clipping the file name down?
Many thanks,

After clicking the ‘Save’ button in Save for Web, open the ‘Settings:’ pulldown and select ‘Other…’. In the ‘Filename Compatibility’ section in the middle of the ‘Saving Files’ view you should enable Windows and Unix compatibility and disable MacOS. Do it once and it will be remembered.
