Batch processing 12 – 279
Renaming and setting attributes for a batch
To rename a batch, proceed as follows:
1. Select the batch in the list and click on the name icon (the “A”).
Alternatively you can hold down [Alt] and double click directly on the batch.
2. Enter the desired name in the dialog.
Entering a number instead of a name has a special meaning. This will change the name of
the batch to the default name “Batch X”, where X is the number you typed. All the other
batches with default names will be renumbered accordingly.
3. If desired, specify an output path for the batch.
This is an advanced option that in many cases will not be necessary. You will only need to
specify a path here if you want to process a number of batches at the same time and want
some of the batches to store their output files in a different directory. See “Setting up file lo-
cations and names” on page 292 for details.
Setting the order of batches
Batches will be processed in the order they appear in the list. If you want
a certain batch to be processed first, put it at the top of the list. There are
several ways to set the order of batches:
• You can move a batch up and down by using the arrow buttons.
• You can drag and drop a batch to change the order.
Adding and removing files from a batch
• Regardless of which method you choose from below, you should first select
the batch to which you want to add the files, by clicking on it.
This will ensure that the files are added to the right batch. If you forget this, you can always
drag files to the right batch later, see “Moving files between batches” on page 282.
Adding open documents
To add a document that is already open to the list, select it from the doc-
ument pop-up menu.
