Exporting Photos into Folders in the Finder
When you export versions and originals, you can have Aperture place the les individually into a
selected folder or create subfolders to hold the les. For example, you might have the exported
les placed in subfolders identied by date. You can create folder name formats that you can
quickly choose to select the folder structure you want.
To create a folder name preset, you select the name elements you want in the Folder Naming
dialog. You can compose subfolder name formats that combine the following name elements:
Version Name
Original File Name
Sequence Number (1 of 3, 2 of 3, 3 of 3, and so on)
Image Year
Image Month
Image Day
Image Date
Image Time
Index Number (1, 2, 3, and so on)
Custom Name
Counter (001, 002, 003, and so on)
Folder Name
Current Date
Current Time
Current Year
Current Month
Current Day
Project Name
/ (slash)
You can specify a combination of name elements to create custom folder names.
