Insert the UUID into the UUID_of_imager_counter variable within the script. Copy the reference link of that file and extract the UUID part of the link, i.e., remove “ x-devonthink-item://” from the link text, e.g., x-devonthink-item://58111DBA-42BA-4EE1-A251-FAF27C3FDA81 $ ightarrow$ 58111DBA-42BA-4EE1-A251-FAF27C3FDA81. To make the script work, you first have to create an empty document in DEVONthink (of any kind however, the script is only tested for Markdown files). Add custom text + increasing number A custom text with an attached increasing number will be added to the current comment. Add custom text A custom text will be added to the current comment. Add current image name The current image name will be added to the current comment. Remove current annotation and leave empty Removes the current comment and leaves it empty.

Replace with custom text The current comment will be replaced by a custom text. Replace with current image name The current comment will be replaced by the current image name. The original file names will be stored in the images’ Finder comments for which the script offers the following options: It also makes images better distinguishable from other files in DEVONthink’s search. This reduces file name ambiguity which, e.g., becomes a crucial point when using DEVONthink’s WikiLinks feature. In this way, each renamed image file gets a unique file name. The number will be increased every time the script is run and for every renamed image. The script Image auto-rename and annotate.applescript ꜛ renames the selected images according the scheme img#, i.e., the new names will consist of “ img” and a number. Change DPI A DPI changer and JPG converter. JPG compression A JPG compressor and JPG converter. Generate image set Generates a set of image links, arranged in a desired grid size (1, 2, 3, 4, … images per row).

It consists of scripts that I frequently use in my Markdown workflow and contains the following script sets: Image auto-rename and annotate Renames images according the scheme “img#” and stores the original file name as a comment.
