Add captions to image?

Lightroom is on the way. Can I add a caption to an image ala Picassa?

I live in hope that someone in Adobe will grasp how workflow can be improved by allowing the use of metadata within Lightroom, without the need for return trips to Photoshop, InDesign or other Desktop Tools.
There will always be a need for specialist pixel editors (Photoshop) and specialist Desktop App (InDesign). I have both. But easy placement of metadata on a page, web screen, slide or book should be a basic tool of Lightroom. Furthermore, when you decide to use Photoshop or InDesign there should be professional tools in Photoshop (non existant...but they improved the Text tool) and InDesign (some basic /user unfriendly) to allow us apply our metadata.
At the moment, in my view, Adobe's vision of improved workflow is that you export rendered images out of Lightroom and then re-import them, generating massive 100mb plus files when we started with a 25mb file and some text.
As I said at the top, ......I live in hope.

Add captions to all images in a document

Does anyone already have a script that will add captions to all the images in a document? Right now I have to select each image on each spread which doesn't feel very efficient.

Hi Sandee!
Would that be using CS5's automatic caption function, or just "captions in general"?
If the latter, I s'pose it's not too hard to write a quick & dirty script to add a text frame below (above?) each image, sets its width to the image size, sets the height to a reasonable amount, optionally add an object style to it, and (for instance) copy the image file name into it so you know what you're talking about.
If the former ... anyone else?

How can add captions or title to a picture now that iPhoto doesn't work after updating to iOS 8.

I Have updated to iOS 8 and iPhoto is dismissed. How can add a caption /title (not in the image) like I was used with iPhoto? Photos has not this feature.
please, could anyone help me. I'm a real beginner. Thanks,

The photos.app does not (yet) have the option to add captions or tags. It is not possible right now. You can however search for the captions you added previously using the search field. You can also search for album names. So, as a work-around, put photos that should have the same caption into an album with a name like the caption.
See: Migrating from iPhoto for iOS to Photos on iOS 8
You may want to send feedback to Apple, that captions and tags are essential and need to be added in an update. Use this form: Apple - iPhoto - Feedback

How do I add captions?

I have pages of copy interspersed with photos. I would like to add captions over the bottom of the photos. In GL9 I simply added a floating box and wrote in the copy. That doesn't seem to work here. No matter how carefully I think I am positioning the curser (using code view) I cannot get a box over the photo. If I try to use relative,where do I insert to make it relative to photo. I actually want it inside the photos.
Thanks.

DW is much, much easier to use if you learn HTML and CSS basics fist. 90% of the answers given in this forum are in Code speak. So if you don't know how to work with code, you probably won't understand the answers we give you.
As an example, look at this photo proof page.
http://alt-web.com/TEMPLATES/CSS-Semi-liq-photo-sheet.shtml
The relevant CSS code is like so:
/**this styles image container**/
.photos p {
float:left;
width:auto;
height: 14em;
margin: 10px;
padding: 10px;
border: 1px solid silver;
/**this styles caption text**/
font: italic 12px/1 Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #666;
text-align:center;
/**same size images recommended, adjust as req'rd**/
.photos img {
width: 92px;
height: 124px;
/**float clearing**/
.clear_photos {
clear:left;
height:1px;
width: 100%;
And the HTML code looks like this:
<body>
<div class="photos">
<p><img src="your-image-goes-here.jpg" alt="#"/><br />optional caption</p>
<p><img src="your-image-goes-here.jpg" alt="#"/><br />optional caption</p>
<p><img src="your-image-goes-here.jpg" alt="#"/><br />optional caption</p>
 </div>

<hr class="clear_photos" />
</body>

Will Photos app be updated soon to permit add caption to picture like the iPhoto before ios 8 kill it? I used thad feature and now I don't now how can I do. thanks

I haven't seen any mention of adding the text feature to photos, but Apple is always tight lipped on new features. Try a photo editor app like the one below.

How can I add captions to CS4 Web Galleries?

I need to create an image slideshow on a website, something I have never done before, and Bridge CS4 seems to offer a useful selection of Web Galleries. However, the standard Web Galleries only seem to display the filename (whether you like it or not) and do not appear to offer any captioning facility.
Am I missing something? Without the ability to add my choice of multiline captions, the Bridge Web Galleries are not much use to me. If there is no way to modify these galleries to add captions can anyone suggest an alternative solution, ideally at zero or minimal cost?
David

David,
The caption options in the Bridge web gallery feature are limited. You can specify titles, captions, and descriptions that appear on every page of a gallery, and you can choose to display filenames, cell numbers, or all metadata for individual images in some templates. Otherwise, the templates do not display unique captions with individual images. Documentation is at
Create a web photo gallery with Adobe Output Module.
The web photo gallery feature from Photoshop CS3 is now an optional plugin for CS4. I believe some of those templates have some additional caption options. You can find out about downloading and using the optional plugin at
Creating web photo galleries.
If you'd like to make a feature request, go to www.adobe.com/go/wish.

Re emailing photos from iPhoto: after I create an event, I later add captions, each one beginning with a number. I'd like to email a set of these photos in the order they are captioned, not the original order of the event. How do I do this?

I take a number of photos of an event which I download into iPhoto as an Event. I later add captions to some of the photos in the Event, and I want to share them by email IN THE ORDER OF THE CAPTIONS RATHER THAN IN THE ORDER THEY APPEAR IN THE EVENT. Each caption begins with a unique number followed by text. How can I email them in the order of the caption numbers?

You can't, block capitals notwithstanding. Try using numbered Filenames. But remember how it's all received at the other end is entirely based on the settings on the recipients machine, so it might well be moot.

Is it possible to add a barcode image generator API on HTMLDB that support

Hi All,
Currently we create Barcodes images using a Java solution - open source API called Barbeque.barcode.servlet. Is it possible to add a barcode image generator API on HTMLDB that support multiple formats?
Our current process:
All jobs created in our system require a barcode which is then printed onto a cover sheet for each job (refer example). We also currently have individual barcodes printed on a single feed barcode printer for attaching to jobs sheets. We also print A4 sheets of barcodes with the Field Technican id number on that we sent out to them.
Thanks in advacne
Manoj

It certainly is possible to call Java from PL/SQL and so therefore from APEX.
The process is fairly well documented online and there's a well cited example of calling Apache FOP within these forums.
You may however need to do a little work to wrap your Java library using static methods in order to do this.

Ben

How do I add captions to the photos in my slideshow?

Prior to the new Photos program, I was able to add captions to each photo in my slideshow - especially important for travel slideshows. I can't find any info on that or any function for that.

Thanks for your response but I can't find those apps under the list of apps in my settings.

How do I add captions to pictures?

I am very new to the MAC world (one week to be exact). I have searched help and can find a method to select the font to add captions to photos but cannot find the method. I want add captions to photos in an album and then use the album to create a slideshow. Any help would be appreciated.
Nepa

Another way to put captions in the slideshows is to first put the captions in the Description field that TD mentioned and then use this script to write those descriptions into the Title field to use in the slideshow. When you're done you can use the Photos->Batch Change->Title to File Name.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

How do you add captions to photos in iDVD slideshows?

Is there a way to add captions to photos once you've put them into slideshows on iDVD? Or, if not, is there another way to add captions to them, though another apple application such as iPhoto? I haven't been able to figure out how to make captions for photos in iPhoto slideshows either. Please help!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. if you're creating the slideshow from stills in iDVD use the Settings button at the bottom to bright up the pane where you can add titles and comments. The downside of that is every photo will automatically have it's file name or title entered. If you don't want that then while you're in iPhoto use the Photos->Batch Change->Title->None option before you import into iDVD. Then none of them will have the titles entered and you can add them to just those that you want. Or you can add them while in iPhoto before importing.

How to add two different images on photoshop cs5?

I was learning about the layers and masks and i seen that i have to have two images under each others under the layer option pannel, i tried many times to add images but it always shows in two different pannels as the folloing image I want to add two different images in this pannel to make any changes i want
Thank you.
image

When you click on that icon Photoshop will add a revail all white layer mask and it will be the Photoshop target. Begin painting with black over the image part you wish to hide. Should you paint away something you want change to white paint and paint it back. Lower the brush opacity to fade in and out the image part.
If you use ALT+Click on that icon a hide all black layer mask will be added as the current taget and hide all of the layer paint with whits to show.
