Download Path Tokens

The Download folder path in File > Preferences > Downloads & Printing supports tokens that are substituted automatically when files are received.

 

Standard Tokens

Token Expands to
{documents} The Documents folder
{iPadName} The name of the Apple device sending the file
{path} The relative path of the file being downloaded

 

Advanced Usage

The {path} token is useful for routing files to different subfolders based on filename patterns.

Example: Download files ending in _1.jpg to a folder named Hotfolder and all other files to a folder named after the iPad:

{documents}\Breeze Booth\{if,{compare,{right,5,{path}},_1.jpg},Hotfolder,{iPadName}}

 

Multi-Device Events

If running an event with multiple Apple Devices and sharing photos via software on the PC, remove {iPadName} from the path and replace it with a fixed event name. This downloads photos from all iPads into the same folder, making them accessible to sharing software as a single pool.
