Absolutely! I think RudiC may be on to something.

A bad filename could include anything that doesn't follow the naming schema.

Again, naming schema:

Code:
locationabbreviation-year-orgnumber_imagenumber.tif


Error examples:
  1. Any of these, out of order.
  2. Spaces within the name.
  3. Special characters. ( examples: / * ? & % #)
  4. A non-valid year, e.g. 1890. Any not exclusive to 1900's+.
  5. It could also be missing one of these 4 categories, e.g. included locationabbrev, year & image number, but left out org number.


Does this provide any clarity on the question?
