If you set [OCR (Text Searchable)] for [PDF], [XPS], [OOXML] as the file format, you can set [Auto (OCR)] to 'On' to automatically name the file with extracting first text block which is detected as the document title. You can set the number of characters that are extracted for [Auto (OCR)] in <No. of OCR File Name Characters> in OCR (Text Searchable) Settings. (See "Settings for Creating Searchable PDF/XPS/OOXML.")
IMPORTANT
The desired text block may not be set as the file name depending on the layout of the document, etc.
Characters, such as commas (,), slashes (/), or brackets ([,]) are invalid when sending a file and will not be extracted as the file name.
If you have already entered a document name, the extracted text block is appended to the end of the file name. Characters over the character limit will be cut off.
You cannot set the encrypted PDF mode and [Auto (OCR)] at the same time.
