			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Batch renaming made easy with <a href="http://www.den4b.com/projects.php">Renamer</a></p>
<p>&#8220;ReNamer is a very powerful and flexible file renaming tool, which offers all the standard renaming procedures, including prefixes, suffixes, replacements, case changes, as well as removing contents of brackets, adding number sequences, changing file extensions, etc. For advanced users, there is a PascalScript rule, which let users program their very own renaming rule. Program allows you to combine multiple renaming actions as a rule set, applying each action in a logical sequence, which can be saved, loaded, and managed within the program. In addition, it has an ability to rename folders, process regular expressions, Unicode capable, and supports variety of meta tags, such as: ID3v1, ID3v2, EXIF, OLE, AVI, MD5, CRC32, and SHA1.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sometimes, when you print to PDF using PDFCreator, you can get the following error on the last page of your PDF output:  &#8220;ERROR: undefined [...] OFFENDING COMMAND:_ [...] STACK: [....]&#8221;</p>
<p>You can fix this problem following these instructions:</p>
<p> First, you must Rollback to PDFCreator 0.9.3 (unless a newer version then 0.9.5 is out).</p>
<p>    Find the <strong>PDFCreator</strong> printer in the Printer and Faxes control panel. Right-click on it and select <strong>Properties</strong>:</p>
<p>Select the <strong>Advanced</strong> tab:</p>
<p>and select <strong>Print directly to the printer</strong> (this prevents spooling the PDF output to the disk twice). Now select the <strong>Device Settings</strong> tab:</p>
<p>and set <strong>Send CTRL-D After Each Job</strong> to <strong>No</strong>. Also change the <strong>Wait Timeout</strong> to <strong>1</strong> seconds:</p>
<p>Thanks to David Taft, Brent Powers and <a href="http://www.stat.tamu.edu/~henrik/GSWriter/GSWriter.html">http://www.stat.tamu.edu/~henrik/GSWriter/GSWriter.html</a>.    </p>
<p>PS: If PDFCreator truncates, trims or cuts filenames, make sure the path is not too deep.  Try copying  your files to the root folder and see if it fixes the problem.</p>
<p>Note: I re-posted this solution with different keywords because I had a hard time finding it because it was specific to GhostScript/Redmon.</p>
