HTMLZ Output

I find Calibre very helpful when converting PDFs to HTMLs; but why does the zipped file have the actual HTML file just called "index"? Why doesnt it have the name of the book?

After extraction, it takes a while to go to each index.HTML, open each, see which one it is and then rename it.

Is there some way around this? It is time consuming.

Thank you

index.html is the default name for a main page of a set of html documents in a directory.

The name can change and often isn't correct. Naming the file the title when converting means it will stay that way within the archive. This approach allows you to flexibly update the title via the metadata.opf file included with the html file.
