It’s the same thing with certain special characters on Mac actually, including the colon but not the underscore. I would have liked to get the filenames to save without truncating before customizing the template, but how do I add the subtitle field?

@kovidgoyal: But why are they being cut off in the middle, and why would the author's name also be truncated in the folder name as "Petty,rrence"? I also explained that on Mac I can type in extra lines of text (dozens of additional characters), so the filename allowed by the OS is not the limitation.
