When using "save for web" Photoshop insists on using hyphen where theres a blank space. The filename "23 34.jpg" is therefore called "23-34.jpg". Is there anyway to remove this? I tried making a new Output Setting without any presets (hyphens, dash, underscore etc)in the fil-naming, but to no avail.
All help appriciated.

When you were in the output settings dialog, did you uncheck the Mac and Unix compatibility boxes?

That fixed it for me.

The reason that save for web is doing this is that the normal protocol on web servers is that a space is a forbidden character. If you upload a file with such a name, the ftp program will (hopefully) replace the space with %20. If it does not, your file will not work.

Be very cautious about unchecking the compatibility mode.
