Replace title metadata on PDF with file name
Hi, I have a large number of PDFs where the file name would be a better title than the title embedded in current meta data. Does anyone know if this can be done in bulk? (Either through a Calibre plug in or with some other app.)
Thanks! |

There's an option in Add Books settings to obtain metadata from the file name rather then from within the ebook file itself, viz: **The GetFileName plugin can store the original file name in a metadata custom column, but it runs when a book is added.

Thanks! I hadn't caught that option. I still have the original files, so I'll do that!
