Show full stop/period in Flow Name token

I’m trying to export a flow to PDF and the Flow Name incudes a full stop. When using the Flow Name ($w) token, the full stop is missing from the filename.

Is there a way to always show a full stop when using the Flow Name token?

I’m able to get a full stop in the flow name as part of the export filename.

What exactly is your file name recipe, and what’s the name of your flow?

$w - $l

Joy.

Can I send you the file privately?

It doesn’t export here either.
Perhaps it’s a Windows thing?

I’m on a Mac.

It seems to fail only if the full stop is the final character.

7

Maybe it is a Finder thing? Is it the same if you check the filename in the terminal?

I think that the flow titles are “sanitized” before they become filenames, with certain characters removed. IT maybe that having a dot as the final character falls into that.

Could you use Unicode U+FF0E instead? It’s a little different but ….
