I have been organizing my photos (couple 1000) with Adobe Bridge. They are all scan so I have manually tagging them. It just dawned on me I should be doing the captions too. I been playing around testing it out and it looks like Gallery doesn't recognize ITPC descriptions. They don't do up and I am saving the metadata before uploading.

Am I missing something. Any pointers would be appreciated!

Thanks,

JIm

It should be fine if you're using Bridge; only an issue if you're using Adobe's "Save For Web." Are you sure you have activated the exif module?

Other than that, there are a few modules that aim to work with different metadata types; I'm not sure if any of them are 100%.

Thank you tempg. Had no idea I needed the exif module. I downloaded the sidebar one and installed it to see if would work and it did.

Great! Thanks again.
