Using Variables with Digital Media

About

Using variable text for folder naming is an easy way to stay organized in fast paced workflow. It allows your staff to easily access images to save to flash drives and other sharing options. When adding this option to a print package, you can quickly track what images were printed by browsing Windows folders. This is a great option for Santa photography, theme parks, and many other shoot and sell workflows.
