You may want to use a custom attachment name. To learn how to do that, see "Renaming

attachments" below.

Note that an Attachments script creates one single attachment. To add more attachments, you

could either add Attachments scripts, or click the Expand button and edit the script.

If you want to write your own email attachment scripts, there is a how-to that you may find

helpful: How to add custom email attachments.

Renaming attachments

Sections that are attached to an email can only be renamed via a Control Script; see "Parts:

splitting and renaming email attachments" on page961.

Renaming dynamic attachments

Dynamic attachments can be renamed via the script that attaches them to the email. Double-

click the script to open it and click the Expand button.

Dynamic attachment scripts add a <link> element to the <head> of an Email section. The title

attribute of that element specifies the attachment name that will show up in the email.

Take a look at the last line of the script:

results.append(query("<link rel=related>").attr("title", result.split('/').pop()).attr("href", result));

To give the attachment another name, you have to replace the bold part of the code by that new

name. For example:

results.append(query("<link rel=related>").attr("title", "Invoice.pdf").attr("href", result));

Of course, you can also use data field values here, for example: results.append(query("<link

rel=related>").attr("title", record.fields.invoice_number + ".pdf").attr("href", result));

Note that the Wizard can no longer be used once you have edited and saved the script.

Note

For attachment names, it is recommended to use only US-ASCII characters. Other

characters may not be supported by all email servers and clients.
