Is there a way to take a variable and only use X number of it's characters??

var myDocument = app.activeDocument;
var myDocumentName = myDocument.name;

I would like trim down myDocument.name or in other words only allow it to read the first 7 characters of myDocument.name

The file naming convention being used at my work is way too lengthy :
00525-6_022-023.indd

My script, upon exporting a file, already inserts the page number per exported page and the extension .indd just gets in the way!

Any help would greatly be appreciated! After perusing the forums as a guest for days you all have my upmost respect for being able to make applications do what you want them to do with a few lines of code!
