Is there any way to make k2pdf read the file name instead of metadata? I have numbers on each article in my library for PhD research. But My Kobo Aura H20 seem to show metadata as the file name, and it makes it really hard to find what you need in a 40-ish number large list of articles.

Or is it possible for k2pdf to stamp the given filename onto the metadata of the pdf?

I'm also open for suggestions; clearly I'm new in this area of devices.

Thanks in advance,
There is not currently a direct option to put the file name into the TITLE metadata field, but you can specify that meta data on the command-line:
Code:
k2pdfopt -title "My Title" ...
So you could probably develop a script relatively easily that would generate a set of commands to substitute the file name for the title.

PS. I'll add that feature request to my list.
