Exporting a multipage InDesign document to single page PDFs but with unique filenames using scripts

$

Hi,

 

I'm using InDesign 5.5.

 

My goal is to export a multipage InDesign file into single page PDFs but each single PDF must be uniquely named.

 

For example;

 

InDesignFileName_487275123.00.pdf

InDesignFileName_734876882.00.pdf

 

...and so on.

 

I've spent a great deal of time searching online and the closest I have found is  software called Output Factory which works fine.

 

The way Output Factory works is by placing a script label within a textframe on the master page in InDesign. Then whatever is typed into the text frame on each the separate pages defines the file name of each separate page.

 

However if I can solve this problem without any investment costs my boss will be very happy

 

I found PEU5 which works great for exporting into single pages, it's now a case of naming each single PDF but I know nothing how about to create a script but I get the gist of what they do. My understanding is that a script could solve the second half of my problem.

 

Can anyone help?

 

Thanks.

 

S
