Anyone have a work-around or ideas? Anything in the FDK?

I don't know of a built-in way of doing this, but a limited workaround is available in the context of FM->PDF or FM->PS workflows: you can place the filename variable in a text frame, add a short PostScript code fragments before and after it, and tag the text frame as PS code. The PS fragments will remove the extension and control the formatting of the filename.

If this approach is applicable, I can set up a .fm file demonstrating the workaround.
