I attach pdf files to all my records in my EndNote libraray. EndNote actually creates a folder with same name as the pdf file and then puts the pdf inside it, and finally the whole thing goes in a pdf folder.This probabaly is a nice way to orgainze pdf and other docs, but i am running intro trouble with long filenames when I try backups. Due to my elaborate naming schemes for each paper compounded by the creation of folder by same name to store the pdf, I am running into a charater limitation for the filenames.
I have two questions about this 1) is there anyway to automatically change the endnote embedded pdf file names for the whole libraray to make it small? 2) can I change the way endnote saves pdf when u attach the file through file attachement so as not to create a new folder?
