Python help

I am looking for some help writing scripts to move and rotate jewelry objects to sit and lie flat on the cplane and save a copy. These files will include parallel and not parallel objects. I need the script to open and run through multiple files in a folder, move the model, and save the files with a suffix to the original file name.
Example:
Image 1 is the original
Move Image 1 placement to Image 2 placement and save with -01 suffix
Move Image 1 placement to image 3 placement and save as -02 suffix
The jewelry models will all have different size settings but must sit flat on the cplane.

Please let me know if anyone can help

Regards Luke



can you not do this with snapshots or named positions?
