Exporting Tiles as Images

When exporting a tilemap as a text document, the result looks something like this:

2,2,2,15,15,15,17,17,15,2,2,2, etc.

But when trying to save the tiles as separate images, you must save them with a file name and then they are saved as something like this: tile_000, tile_001, etc.
The tilemap lists them one way and the exported tiles saves them another. This is in-congruent and very annoying.
Is there anyway just to export them and have them numbered just like they are in the text tilemap without using a new name for them? ie 0,1,2,3,4, etc?
This would be a very big help.  
Thank you!

Hi Chris_A

I experimented a bit with this as I didn't know myself and it seems you can type "." then it will export the files as 1.png 2.png etc...

I just tried this out and it still exports pictures as "000.png", "001.png", etc. The tilemap list them as "0" and "1", not 000 and 001. This is what my issue is. At least we are moving one step closer to finding out what the solution is, as 000.png is better than x_000.png.
