VariableDescriptionExample
{original}Original filenamevacation
{num}3-digit chunk number001
{total}Total chunks12
{width}Chunk width1080
{date}Export date2025-01-15

Example patterns:

  • Instagram: carousel_{num}.jpgcarousel_001.jpg
  • With dimensions: {original}_{width}x{height}_{num}.png
  • Date-stamped: {date}_{original}_{num}.jpg

Same as Original — Chunks saved alongside source image.

Subfolder — Creates {filename}_chunks/ folder for each image.

Custom Location — Choose any folder, with options to prompt each time or remember last location.

Color Profile:

  • Preserve original
  • Convert to sRGB (best for web)
  • Remove profile (smallest size)

Metadata:

  • Preserve all — Keep EXIF, color profile, copyright
  • Strip all — Remove everything (smallest)
  • Strip GPS only — Privacy-focused

Scaling:

  • Original size (100%)
  • Custom percentage
  • Maximum dimensions (fit width/height)
