The most effective way to name your files is to incorporate the product's unique identfier numbers and the languages that apply. In this way, the files are automatically linked to the products.

An optimal file name could be for example:
EAN0123456789101-CNK1234567-PA-NL-FR-DE-FRONT-LEFT.jpg

The parameters mentioned below are taken into account:

• Product identifiers:
  • EAN-13 code (ex: "EAN0123456789101")
  • CNK number (ex: "CNK1234567")
• Type of the image:
  • for packshots use "pa"
  • for productshots use "pr"
  • for pillshots use "pi"
  • for lifestyle images use "ls"
• Languages for which the image is applied (for example: en-nl)
• Visible sides of the subject:
  • if the frontside is visible, use "front"
  • if the left- or rightside is visible, use "left" or "right"
  • if the backside is visible, use "back"
  • if the topside is visible, use "top"
  • if the bottomside is visible, use "bottom"

Please note: .png files are not optimised for website or webshop applications; we recommend using .jpg files.

Please do not use special characters such as &é”’(§è!çà) and avoid spaces and points in the naming of the file.
