Capture On Touch - Prompt for File Name before saving

[Cliff-G]

We currently utilize CaptureOnTouch V5 Pro with our imageFORMULA DR-C225 II scanners. We were wondering if there was a way for Capture On Touch to prompt our users for a file name rather than having a default name assigned, and our users re-naming the file.   At the moment, we have the file names created based on date and time, but some of our users prefer to set the file name initially. 

Capture Perfect is an app they previously used and it would prompt for a file name prior to scanning.  I have not seen a way to have Capture On Touch give users the same flexibility.  

Does anyone know if this is possible? 

Many Thanks in advance.

Yes!!! Our office is in the same boat. Got a new computer and can't get the old version. We scan several different kinds of documents all at once and need to be able to save the information without having to grab it back of the scanner. Most titles are complex enough memory is not helpful. Our documents are legal and must re-main in order and the less we have to thumb through them the better.

Hello,
CaptureOnTouch V5 Pro does not currently support prompting users for a custom file name before scanning, unlike Capture Perfect. File names are set through predefined templates using date, time, and counters. A workaround is to scan to a temporary folder and rename files manually or via a post-scan script. For full flexibility, you may consider using Capture Perfect or third-party scanning software that supports pre-scan file naming. dogsounds app
