Export to subfolder by removing the original extension.

Hello!

I'm trying to edit a script that creates a JPEG copy of the document in a subfolder but I could not fix this problem:

How to save only the document name?

Script:

var subfolder = "BackupFolder";      
        if (app.documents.length > 0) {        
            var thedoc = app.activeDocument;        
            var docName = thedoc.name;        
            var basename = docName;        
            if (docName.indexOf(".") != -1)        
             basename = docName.match(/(.*)\.[^\.]+$/)[1]        
            var docPath = "~/Desktop";        
            try {        
                docPath = thedoc.path;        
            } catch (e) {}        
           var jpegOptions = new JPEGSaveOptions();      
            jpegOptions.quality = 9;      
            jpegOptions.embedColorProfile = true;      
            jpegOptions.matte = MatteType.NONE;        
            //save tif as a copy:          
            if (!Folder(docPath + "/" + subfolder).exists) Folder(docPath + "/" + subfolder).create();      
            var saveFile = docPath + '/' + subfolder + '/' + thedoc.name +'.jpg';          
            if (File(saveFile).exists)          
                saveFile = incrementFile(saveFile);          
            thedoc.saveAs(new File(saveFile), jpegOptions, true);         
        };        
        function incrementFile(pathToFile) {        
            var saveSufixLength = 2,        
                suffix = zeroPad(0, saveSufixLength),        
                newPathToFile = pathToFile,        
                suffixInteger, folder, fileName, extension;        
            while (File(newPathToFile).exists) {        
                suffixInteger = parseInt(suffix, 10);        
                suffixInteger += 1;        
                suffix = zeroPad(suffixInteger, saveSufixLength);        
                folder = File(pathToFile).path;        
                fileName = File(pathToFile).name.substring(0, File(pathToFile).name.lastIndexOf("."));        
                extension = File(pathToFile).name.substring(File(pathToFile).name.lastIndexOf(".") + 1, File(pathToFile).name.length);        
                newPathToFile = folder + "/" + fileName + "_" + suffix + "." + extension;        
            }        
            return newPathToFile;        
               function zeroPad(num, digit) {        
                var tmp = num.toString();        
                while (tmp.length < digit) {        
                    tmp = "0" + tmp;        
                }        
                return tmp;        
            }        
        }

(untestet) but it seems

var saveFile = docPath + '/' + subfolder + '/' + thedoc.name +'.jpg';

should be:

var saveFile = docPath + '/' + subfolder + '/' + basename +'.jpg';

Perfect! Thank you pixxxel schubser.
