Hello,

Does anyone know if it possible to export from LR4 with a unique number on each exported photo?

So say I am exporting 20 photos i would like to have a unique number in the top of each photo.

any hep would be much appreciated.

Thanks
 
The only way I think you can do this is export as jpeg from the print module . At the bottom of the PAGE pane is an option to include Photo Info. Under custom you can add a unique number sequence.

Not sure if this is exactly what you want but it may surfice
 
Yeah I thought about that method as well, just I need to add a water make an dont want to have then import and export with the watermark added
 
Yes - when you go into the export dialogue scroll down to FILE NAMING section and check the RENAME TO checkbox then you can rename each file in all sorts of ways such as sequence, custom name etc...

EDIT: forgive my stupidity - I thought you wanted custom file names... you want something similar to a watermark don't you, but in a numbered sequence for each shot?....

IrfanView is free and allows you to watermark with text and/or the file name. So you could rename the 20 jpgs using IrfanView the run another batch to automatically add "Copyright 2013 01" etc. If you want jpgs you may be better off exporting from LR as Tiffs then converting to jpg when you run the 2nd IrfanView batch.
