File Names TOO Long

[Bill]

I am having a problem with the button files in the
derived directory being too long to get publisher to my
web server.
For Example:
products.htm_cmp_indust000_bnr.gif

This failed, how can I rename them?

How did you determine that the file name is too long??

I sent you an email with the line and description. The
Web server is not XP and has a restriction on it's side.

As a guide the _derived folder(s) filenames generated by FP can require up to 19 Extra Characters in addition to the Combined Length
of your "filename.ext" & "theme_name" - so if your server/pc limit is 32 you only have 13 characters TOTAL for both!
- use Format Theme Modify/Customize (change anything) and them Save as a new them name - say: ind (that will be 3 of the 13 char)
- then rename all your pages filenames =<6 char (you need 4 char for the: .ext) - say "prodct.htm"
