Migration of notes containing a PDF from Evernote - migrated PDF without name

If the PDF file in Evernote has some non-descript file name, oftentimes happens with downloaded PDFs that are stored somewhere as assets with random or generic names. After importing such a note into Zoho Notes, the note gets pretty much lost in Zoho notes sea of notes.

Example:

While my original note in Evernote may be called..

e.g. "How to get free coffee at McDonalds without ever paying for it"

The PDF stored in the note may be called ..

e.g. idsyufbweberihghfiu.PDF   ..... OR ....   UNTITLED.pdf

That's because the PDF was downloaded and I never changed the name of the PDF to match the note. Why would I do it in Evernote, if the PDF is stored in the note? I can simply search by the title of the note to find it.

The issue with Zoho Notes is, such a note imported in Zoho Notes from Evernote would result in a separate text note (having the correct note name) and (a) separate PDF file(s) for attached PDF(s) from the same note in Evernote.

While that doesn't sound like a big deal if I the PDF can be found based on the content of the PDF, often this doesn't work that well with lots of notes in Notebook.

So Ideally would be if the text note in Evernote contains the reference to the PDF and the PDF can be found easily when searching for the note, even if the PDF file name is a generic name.

This is not a big requirement to ask but until this is fixed, I see no justification for subscribing for their paid plans.
