      For example, when you send 10-page original in jpeg format at 15:30:15.5 on Dec. 31, 2020, the file names are from "20201231153015500_0001.jpg" to "20201231153015500_0010.jpg".

    • For multi page format:

      For example, when you send 10-page original in PDF format at 15:30:15.5 on Dec. 31, 2020, the file name is "20201231153015500.pdf".
