When you download for example the MW Developers Guide http://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Book&bookcmd=render_collection&colltitle=User:Wikinaut/Books/MediaWiki_Developer%27s_Guide&writer=rl you'll get a PDF file titled "collection.pdf" when storing the PDF. Suggestion ========== Better would be a meaningful file name title which corresponds to the Wiki book/collection page title. Non-ASCII character need to be stripped, or transliterated or url-encoded, and spaces replaced with underscore.
Same problem with ZIM files, "collection.zim".
I just submitted a patch for this bug: gerrit change I0c53d31e43354a63dcc115b59a961e43bb86e8c4 It still has a few issues though: - it works only for Latin-1 - Accented characters will be converted to ASCII - Everything else will be dropped - If everything is dropped, "collection" + EXT will be used as filename

Please don't forget that titles in non-english wiki projects are completely Non-ASCII. So don't drop them :) What issue do you see when file name contains valid UTF-8 characters?
This is a quick fix. HTTP can only handle ASCII characters by default. RFC 5987 describes a way to handle UTF-8 filenames, but this requires some additional work and will not work in legacy browsers.
