Customizing Result File Names
Special keywords can be used as placeholders in the output file names, to be replaced with dynamic values during the execution.
A trivial example is prefixing each document with the page number, when splitting.
[CURRENTPAGE]
A reference to the current page number in the input document
Example: [CURRENTPAGE###] will generate filesnames like 001.pdf, 002.pdf.
Example: [CURRENTPAGE##] generates 01.pdf, 02.pdf, etc.
[TIMESTAMP]
Ensures unique output filenames, being replaced with current date & time.
[FILENUMBER]
Ensures unique output filenames, replaced with a file number according to the output order
Example: [FILENUMBER###] generates 001, 002
Example: [FILENUMBER13] starts with the counter at 13, generating 13, 14,
etc.
[BASENAME]
Does not ensure unique output filenames, and it must be used together with other placeholders ensuring unique names.
It is replaced with original name of the input document, without the extension.
Example: [CURRENTPAGE]_[BASENAME] would generate 1_input-file.pdf, 3_input-file.pdf,
etc.
[BOOKMARK_NAME]
This pattern is replaced by current bookmark's name. Only applicable in the "Split by bookmarks" tool.
[BOOKMARK_NAME_STRICT]
Same behavior as [BOOKMARK_NAME] with the difference that non-alphanumberic characters are
removed.
Example: [CURRENTPAGE]-[BOOKMARK_NAME] would generate 1-Introduction.pdf, 4-Chapter
1.pdf, etc.
[TEXT]
This pattern is applicable only in the "Split by text" tool. It is replaced with the text found in the page area selected.
Example: [CURRENTPAGE]-[TEXT] would generate 1-Invoice 3456789.pdf, 4-Invoice
234567.pdf, etc.
[TEXT1], [TEXT2], etc.
This pattern is applicable only in the "Rename" tool. It is replaced with the text found in the selected area.
Example: [TEXT2]-[TEXT1] would generate John Doe-Invoice 3456789.pdf, Jane Doe-Invoice
234567.pdf, etc.

Resetting Browser Zoom
Choosing a zoom level of anything other than 100% (the default) can cause problems in pages where we render PDF pages.
If you are warned about it, reset the browser zoom to 100%.
The quickest way to return your browser to this zoom setting is to use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + 0 on Windows or Cmd + 0 on Mac.
Additional browser-specific instructions for changing the zoom level are detailed below.

How long does it take for a refund to be processed?
It can take anywhere from 5-10 business days for a refund to show up on your bank account.
In some cases, the refund might be processed as a reversal, meaning the original payment will disappear from the account statement entirely and the balance will reflect as though the charge never occurred.
If you do not see the refund after 10 business days and you are still seeing the original charge on your bank statement, please reach out to support for more information.
