How to change names of the attached PDFs of an entry?

edited December 20, 2022
Hey there!

So for example i have an entry of a book and have a pdf of a few scanned pages of that book lying on my computer. I attach those pages as a pdf to the entry. Zotero gives the PDF a name automatically. Id like to change that PDF's name to add "page 20-31" to it. How can i do that?

Also sometimes Zotero messes up the naming of the PDFs in some other ways which also would be handy to change later.

I can rename the parent file to contain the page number, but when i then click on the PDF to "rename file from parent metadata" i often run into the problem that the name of the PDF gets too long when it then also contains the year of the text. Why is there such a short character limit on PDFs anyway?


Thanks!
