I had a friend set up an FTP site for me so I could upload PDFs of

about 200 files were already created, WITH spaces (as Finale defaults
to on Mac).

It is fine as long as server is capable of converting hex value 20 to
white space, or it will be displayed as %20, which might make file name
string difficult to read.

The real issue is when you give the direct hyperlink to someone by
email.  The space character will brake the hyperlink.

Here is my tool for free :-)

Thanks Hiro, Darcy, and Steve for the help and advice.

Especially thanks Hiro for the renaming utility, but I already downloaded and used Renamer4Mac and it is dead simple and effective. I'm sure yours is good too!

Nobody who tested the site had any problems with files with spaces, but better safe than sorry, especially with a deadline looming. Things are looking good, and I have everyone here to thank for the valuable info.

Back to work!

C.
