Document naming convention

Naming your files according to these guidelines makes it easier for Grafostil to meet your expectations of a quality job. This means the right version of the right page, in the right place in your publication.

If your company name is Big Publisher INC and your book name is Herman Melville Moby-Dick, soft cover book with bellyband, use this convention

Date_CompanyNameShortAsPosible_InitalOfWriterBookName_PrintSection

So your supplied document will look

20190511_BigPub_hmMobyDick_CI.pdf
20190511_BigPub_hmMobyDick_COV.pdf
20190511_BigPub_hmMobyDick_MSC.pdf

Good pratice is follow ISO 8601 when you need to include Date in you filename. On wikipedia there is free article about that.

With one exception don't use special character for date delimiter.

Good format

For 11. May 2019. use this format

20190511

YearMonthDay, four number for Year, two for month and two for day

Bad format is

190511

two numbers for year

2019-05-11

 minus sign as delimiter

2019/05\11 

slash and backslash as delimiter

20 19 05 11

space is delimiter
