I would like to use JavaScript or a DOS script to add some words before and after the original filename. Have you any script I can use?
ORIGINAL:
AAAA.pdf
BBBB.pdf
CCCC.pdf
CCCC_01.pdf
CCCC_02.pdf
CCCC_03.pdf
CCCC_04.pdf
DDDD.pdf
EEEE.pdf
Target:
999_AAAA_333.pdf
999_BBBB_333.pdf
999_CCCC_333.pdf
999_CCCC_333_01.pdf
999_CCCC_333_02.pdf
999_CCCC_333_03.pdf
999_CCCC_333_04.pdf
999_DDDD_333.pdf
999_EEEE_333.pdf
Assuming that the letters are always 4 digits long, you can do this, which will insert the 999_ at the front, and the _333 right after the the 4 digits of letters:
@echo off
setlocal ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
cd /d c:\folder\with\pdf\files
for /f "delims=" %%i in ('dir *.pdf /b') do (
set fn=%%i
ren %%i 999_!fn:~0,4!_333!fn:~4,-3!.pdx
)
ren *.pdx *.pdf
endlocal
The ren in the for loop intentionally renames the .pdf files to .pdx so that the for loop won't pick up the renamed files again and perform the rename a second time. Then all the .pdx files are renamed to .pdf...
