Re: Problems renaming a file.
I'm having similar problems with some mass file renames. I'm trying the following command and it doesn't rename my files:

exiftool -r '-FileName<CreateDate' -d PJS%Y%m%d%/PJS%Y%m%d%%-.4nc.%%e file.jpg


The only thing I can think of is that these are scanned images and they have no "Create Date" in the metadata. Thoughts? If this is the case, how do I force this with the actual file creation date? -paul.
