Thank you for trying!!! I wish I hadn't wasted all that time inputting the metadata, when I should have been renaming the files. Lesson learned! Seriously...thank you for your help

I have renamed 2 grades so far. I added their names in the metadata via LR upon 1st import. There are a total of 560 students + - & 140 staff

IDK... Can I? I am VERY NEW to this. I can try. I think the idea behind using the spreadsheet, is it would populate the images along with the corresponding names.

No. I have just been looking all over the web to find an answer to creating the Index.txt file I am creating the yearbook from scratch following the previous persons layout. I found a video of how to populate the student images into Indesign using the Index

https://treering.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201430400-Determining-if-a-School-Photographer-s-Disk-is-PSPA-Format So I just came across this. Its what I need, but I am still trying to figure out how to create it...

Thank you! I will try it in Google Docs.

So, I am trying to create an index.txt file so that I can float a folder of images into InDesign for a yearbook student/staff layout page. I am also the school photographer, but I have never had to create the above file. I am new at building the yearbook.

Kind of. I copied the list into excel, but it renamed all the images with (File:) in front of each of the file names.

Is this the same as an Index.txt Index.txt File (this file will sort the image files so that they flow to the correct location on your portrait pages)

Thank you.

I am looking to figure out (after much Googling) how to create a TXT. file from a folder of images. A text list of the image names in a folder.
