I need help understanding how to save to disk
I know this has more than likely been covered but to be honest I am having a hard time grasping what I am reading about this particular subject.
When I save my books to disk this is what I would like and if it is possible could someone explain how to do so. I don't want folders just the files with the name as Author First name author last name series series index title example Stephanie Meyer Twilight 2- New Moon I hope this makes sense to you....if not let me know and I will try again |

Walt or anyone else
Is there a way that if there is no series index that it will just just put nothing instead of two zeros for books not in a series? |

The good news is that the Save template will save your previous templates in a drop down list so once you have what you want working you can switch between them fast. |

ok...so they need a different template got it....that doesn't sound to hard but for each template that you have is there a way to make it only process the books that fall into that specific template.....hince series books and non series or do I just have to sort accordingly and then highlight and then save to disk?

You can not remove (just) the bad ones that did not work, allowing you to pick the wrong one from one very similar (say: _ vs - ) |
