Filenames used on SUNScholar
- The first vital thing about preservable digital objects is to use the correct file naming procedures.
- The whole filename must be in small caps and have no spaces.
- Spaces must be replaced with dashes (-).
- There cannot be any other formatting characters such as ()#/ etc...
Convert your document or file to an open format first. See below.
Then use the following file naming convention:
authorname-firstwordoftitle-2012.docx
or if saving as a pdf file, which is preferred:
authorname-firstwordoftitle-2012.pdf
or if saving as an xml file, which is preferred:
authorname-firstwordoftitle-2012.xml
All the MSWord files (or other file formats) need to be converted to pdf for submission to SUNScholar.
