I recently ran into a problem with converting a batch of original JPG files—upper case—for a web page. The resulting converted files were saved with a jpg extension—lower case. Using regex to create links between the two, I inadvertently left the extensions as they were. On my case in-sensitive Mac, the links worked fine but when I put them on a case sensitive server, the links naturally failed.
I could have corrected case with my regex (had I noticed it to start) but is there a way in GC to maintain the same case of the extension when converting? I see in the Preferences that either UPPER case or lower case can be chosen for saving files, but having the same case would have saved me a big ten minutes of perplexity.
I could have also renamed all my camera files to my preferred lower case.
Obviously, this is a personal use question, not an additional feature request.

Re: Batch save with same case extension
The batch conversion use currently the save prefs / format.
So, just adjust before the conversion.

Re: Batch save with same case extension
Thanks for the pointer to the SAVE portion of the Preferences. I found that after I had made my mistake.
I will just have to remember to use it.
