: How do I 'save as' with a placed file's name in Illustrator? Say I have a file DSC_0377.jpg. I can open a this with Illustrator, make changes, then choose File Save As Save as type Adobe PDF

Say I have a file DSC_0377.jpg. I can open a this with Illustrator, make
changes, then choose File Save As Save as type
Adobe PDF

and it will be saved as DSC_0377.pdf, as desired. However if I

open an Illustrator Template
File Place the same JPG
File Save As Save as type
Adobe PDF

it will be saved as Untitled-1.pdf. Does Illustrator have an easy way to save
using the name of the placed file? I have many JPGs I need to do this with, so I
would prefer to not have to do something like copy and paste the file names.

The Template in this case is really just a single Compound Shape. So to work
around this problem I used this workflow:

Open Template
Open JPG normally, not using Place
Copy Shape to JPG
Save as PDF

After that I just leave the Template tab open, and open other JPGs to repeat.
