Adding alternative text (meta data)

How do you add Alternative Text to an existing jpeg?
Thanks

Good day!
A jpg can not have »proper« editable text (except in the meta data etc.) but rather presents an image of text.
So changing text in the image would require removing the old text (if it is not completely covered by the new text at least) by using the various tools available for such a task in Photoshop (Clone Stamp Tool, Content Aware Fill, …) and writing in the new one (with the Type Tool for example).
In such a case it might pay off to keep the layered psd file and save a jpg off of that (File > Save As).

Adding a custom meta data field which lists out content id based on query

How can we add a custom meta data filed which lists out content id based on query like dDocType <matches> `AssociatedProduct`?
Or other alternative would be to have a custom metadata field such that it allows selection of content id using link wizard which we typically use in site studio. It would be preferable to have this second option as it is user friendly. Can we do this on a check-in screen?

Thanks for the reply Deepak.
We got it resolved. We did following changes in /ucm/custom/SiteStudio/resources/ss_custom_field_resources.htm file and it worked cleanly.

Live text to Paths Meta Data

This request originated on another list.
The attributes/notes can be used to add text meta-data to objects, which has been around for a long time and is very helpful.
I would love Illus/InDesign to automatically write the font details (font family and or other formatting) to the outlined paths when text is converted from live editable text to outlined vector paths.
There is nothing worse than being given an outlined file as the only data by a client and then asked to make text changes or to match the font for use in a new job.
A very helpful person named Rick Gordon gave me some help in doing this via AppleScript (see below) - however it would be good if this was hard wired into Illus and InDesign so that file originators would tag the font data to the paths when they first outline the editiable text.
SCRIPT:
tell application "Adobe Illustrator"
tell document 1
set storyText to text of story of selection
set fontName to name of text font of text of story of selection
tell selection
tell storyText
set propList to {fontName, return, size, return, leading, return, tracking,
return, rotation}
end tell
set convertedText to convert to paths
set note of convertedText to propList as text
end tell
end tell
end tell

Make sure that the file has a .html or another known file extension to make sure that the server recognizes it as an HTML file.
The server may send unknown files automatically as text plain.

Meta data in Master pages?

In which way can meta data be added to a master page? Unlike to ordinary pages, the page properties dialog offers no tab for adding meta data.
For me this is a problem because I have a Google Translate plug-in embedded in my website. Using the Corrections function in Google's Website Translator I can improve the machine translation results on my website. One of the requirements to make this work is adding some specific meta data in the web page to be corrected. Without having those meta data in my master pages, some translations in pieces from these master pages are simply awful, while the rest of my website is very well corrected now.

Hi Sijmons,
as far as I know there's no way to place the widget before the </head> but I'm not omniscient...
But another problem is also, as far as I can tell... That widgets don't include the code you put in directly in the page where you put the widget in... So the code will not show up in the html code of the page itself... It works like an iframe or better it is an iframe. The widget is a page itself that shows up in the page you inserted it because there is the following code
<iframe id="widget2-frame" src=".//Welcomefiles/widget2markup.html" ...
Isn't it Keywords the same as MetaData? As far as I know inserting keywords in html code itself or inserting keywords in the content of your page while you're writing it is the same. Just use synonyms while typing text.
If you want you could edit the site post-publishing adding it, but as you have to do it every time you publish all over again it's really a mess (if you have a lot of pages).

Cédric

Adding alt text tags in InDesign (and Acrobat Pro)

I am having real difficulty adding alternative text tags. I created an INDD doc with rollover buttons linked to URLs firstly in InDesign CS4. I couldn't add alt text tags in CS4 so I then tried to add them in Acrobat X Pro but failed. Acrobat keeps wanting to class the PDF as a form. I then installed InDesign CS6 from the cloud and added alt text to the rollover buttons via object export options. However, these do not show when I export to PDF.
Can someone help me add alt text to my rollover buttons in my interactive PDF either in InDesign CS6 or in Acrobat Pro after I export it?

In InDesign CS6, you just need to add descriptions to buttons. This is done in the buttons and forms panel:
This is the alt text in Acrobat when you roll over the button:
Hope that helps!

Songbird Damaged iTunes Meta Data and Recently Added List. Best way to fix?

Hello, Apple forums.
A while ago (Long enough to fix some of the broken Meta data), I tried out Songbird as an alternative for when I'm gaming and want a little extra resources.
Unfortunately, I set it up to sync between iTunes and Songbird, and Songbird "updated" my iTunes information and removed META data in the process for any song played on Songbird.
It also had the recently added moved to "Songbird > Recently Added," and proceeded to fill it with every song in my library.
My music is stored on a Western Digital MyBook external HDD (320GB) formatted to FAT32.
I have fifteen playlists, and would like to retain ratings and play counts on the songs.
My library reads "8196 songs, 19:15:40:31 total time, 50.13"
Granted, a couple hundred of these are the ones missing the META data and are broken entries (IE has all the data listed but does not have the file where it should be) and their META-less version added from %library%\music\unknown artists\unknown album\
(The tracks retain their real name with the track number prefixing them, it's just a matter of going through all of the songs and matching them up)
Given that this is as it is, how should I go about this?
I would also like to keep the apps for my 2nd Gen iPod Touch (iOS Pois0ned 4.2.1).
All music is either imported from a CD or an independent artist.
I don't have access to all of the CD's, nor do I particularly want to manually re-add everything.
I am more concerned with the recently added playlist being fixed! I understand that I will have to cut my losses on the META data!

I thought you said Songbird had removed metadata. Most files carry metadata in a tag. If a file "goes missing" because another program chooses to relocate it iTunes will retain an entry in the library with all that information. The FindTracks script makes a bash at locating the moved files in a number of alternate locations, including the unknown artist/unknown album folder or the main Music folder. If the files have actually had metadata removed, but have a tag, then iTunes will read the damaged data and update itself. Not necessarily what you want. For files that are in a logical artist/album layout but don't have tags you could be better off repairing tags first with, for example, MediaMoney's AutoTag from Filename feature.

I had to look up RAT. I'm guessing you meant something like remote admin/access tool. By all means be wary of anything recommended on this site but to accuse me of being underhand without any evidence is hardly the way to start a fruitful conversation. I thought you wanted help here...

Adding Meta Data Permanently to files but nothing else

Can You add your Meta Data information permanently to a file but not any of the other lighting changes? Like you can do in Bridge? So all the hard work stays with the images even if say you lightroom computer died or was stolen?
I know I could export the files and then it would be permanently added but then I would have a double library/hard disk space use.

Auto export to XMP set in the prefs writes to XMP sidecars for RAWs, but puts it in JPEGs, TIFFs and DNGs. Seems like tis is what you want. There are many very vocal on not liking the idea of LR doing this to there 'Originals'. It is just a Metadata ad, not changing the actual image info.

Can Meta data be exported to a text file

Hello, Is there a way in Bridge (CS4) to export meta data from a group of photos (>100) to a text file? I want to track meta data from all my photos using a database program.

While adding localization for appstore meta data, I cannot find the language Polish (Polski)

While adding localization for appstore meta data, I cannot find the language Polish (Polski) under the option Choose another language: in iTunes connect.
I am updating the app to a newer version. I need to show the App description etc in Polish too. But I can't fnd the Polish in the list of languages that can be

Thanks.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you have an issue about adding attachments to list items in app.
To add attachment to list item in the host web, we should first get the list and the list items from the host web, then add the attachments to the list items.
There are two articles about retrieve the list and list items in the host web, you can refer to them.

What’s more, we can also use the REST API to achieve the same scenario.

TEXT INDEX의 META DATA를 CTXSYS USER에서 삭제하는 방법

제품 : ORACLE SERVER
작성날짜 : 2004-05-27
TEXT INDEX의 META DATA를 CTXSYS USER에서 삭제하는 방법
======================================================
PURPOSE
Intermedia text 나 Oracle Text 를 사용할 때, Text index는 삭제되었는 데,
meta data가 삭제되지 않은 경우가 생긴다.
이런 경우, 수동으로 meta data 까지 모두 삭제하는 방법을 알아보자.
Explanation
이 방법은 잘못되는 경우 CTXSYS user를 다시 초기화 해야하는 문제가 발생할 수
있으므로 이를 감안하여 작업해야 한다.
수동으로 삭제하는 방법은 다음과 같은 절차를 이용하여 작업할 수 있다.
1. 먼저 해당 user에서 다음과 같은 command로 index를 drop 해 본다.
SQL> drop index INDEX_NAME force;
2. drop command로 drop이 정상적으로 되지 않으면 다음과 같이 실행한다.
sqlplus ctxsys/ctxsys
select idx_id from dr$index where idx_name='<TEXT_INDEX_NAME>';
=> 조회된 index id가 1092 인 경우 아래와 같이 실행한다.
delete from dr$index_value where IXV_IDX_ID = 1092;
delete from dr$index_object where IXO_IDX_ID = 1092;
delete from dr$index where idx_id = 1092;
commit;
3. Text index를 생성한 user에서 DR$<index_name>$i 이름의 TABLE을 모두
다음과 같이 drop한다.
SQL> drop table dr$<index_name>$i;
SQL> drop table dr$<index_name>$k;
SQL> drop table dr$<index_name>$n;
SQL> drop table dr$<index_name>$r;
4. 이제 해당 Text index를 다시 생성하면 된다.

Keyword question, added to meta data?

I saw a thread about keywords not showing up in converted files meta data. I believe the solution was to make sure that auto-update xmp was set. So does this mean that to have keywords associated with my files outside of LR that I will need to use an xmp sidecar file as well? So if I send files to my stock agency, or to a client who needs the keywords I will need to send the converted file and be sure that the xmp file is sent as well? If this is the case, has anyone who does this encountered problems with their submitted photos/xmp files not being handled properly by their clients/agencies?
Perhaps I am not understanding. Any clarification would be appreciated. Thanks

This shouldn't be an issue.
XMP only needs to be updated when you want the keywords to go into your originals (i.e. the same files that are in your library).
Keywords and other metadata are always inserted into to exported files (JPEG, TIFF, DNG, etc), except if you check the "minimize metadata" option in the Export dialog box.

Adding detailed meta data

I've tried to look a few more times, but I haven't been able to work it out. I want to add detailed meta data to all my images. When I can add the exact same meta data to a batch, I can use the Sync Metadata button. However, I haven't been able to find a way to get that dialogue box when I want to add data to just one image (as there's nothing to sync). At the moment, I'm creating virtual copies to 'sync', so I can add detailed metadata.

When you only want to add metadata to one photo, you do that over on the right in the Metadata panel.

Problem writing meta data changes in xmp in spite of enabled settings

Dear Adobe Community
After struggling with this for two full days and one night, you are my last hope before I give up and migrate to Aperture instead.
I am having problems with Lightroom 5 writing meta data changes into xmp and including development settings in JPEG, inspite of having ticked all three boxed in catalog settings.
In spite of having checked all boxes, Lightroom refused to actually perform the actions. I allowed the save action to take a lot longer than the saving indicator showed was needed, but regardless of this no edits made in the photo would be visible outside Lightroom. I also tried unticking and ticking and restarting my compute.
Therefore, I uninstalled the program and the reinstalled it again (the trial version both times). I added about 5000 images to Lightroom (i.e. referenced). After having made a couple of changes for one photo in development settings, I tried closing the program. However, then this message was then displayed:
I left the program open and running for about 5-5 hours, then tried closing the program, but the message still came up so I closed the program and restarted the computer. I tried making changes to another photo, saving and then closing and the same message comes up. The program also becomes unresponsive, and of course still no meta data has been saved to the photo, i.e. when opening it outside Lightroom, the edits of the photos is not shown.
What do do? I would greatly appreciate any insights, since I have now completely hit the wall.
Oh yes, that´s right:
What version of Lightroom? Include the minor version number (e.g., Lighroom 4 with the 4.1 update).
Lightroom 5.3
Have you installed the recent updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.)
I installed the program two days ago and then for the second time today.
What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac".
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/31.0.1650.63 Safari/537.36
What kind(s) of image file(s)? When talking about camera raw files, include the model of camera.
JPEG
If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?
Please see screen dumps above
What were you doing when the problem occurred?
Trying to save metadata + trying to open images that it seemed I had saved meta data to
Has this ever worked before?
No
What other software are you running?
For some time Chrome, Firefox, Itunes. Then I closed all other software.
Tell us about your computer hardware. How much RAM is installed? How much free space is on your system (C:) drive?
4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Has this ever worked before? If so, do you recall any changes you made to Lightroom, such as adding Plug-ins, presets, etc.? Did you make any changes to your system, such as updating hardware, printers or drivers, or installing/uninstalling any programs?
No, the problems have been there all the time.

Hi Rob
I think you succeeded in partly convincing me. : ) I think I will go for a non-destrucitve program like LR when I am back in Sweden, but will opt for a destructive one for now. Unfortuntately, I have an Olypmus- so judging from your comment NX2 might not be for me.
Hi AnnaK (see below).

My old snaps are JPEG, but I recently upgraded to an Olympus e-pl5 and will notw (edited by RC) start shooting RAW.
Note: I edited your statement: I assume you meant now instead of not.
If you start shooting raw, then you're gonna need a raw processor, regardless of what the next step in the process will be. And there are none better for this purpose than Lightroom, in my opinion. As has been said, you can export those back to Lightroom as jpeg then delete the raws, if storage is a major issue, or convert to Lossy DNG. Both of those options assume you're willing to adopt a non-destructive workflow, from there on out anyway (not an absolute requirement, but probably makes the most sense). It's generally a bad idea to edit a jpeg then resave it as a jpeg, because quality gets progressively worse every time you do that. Still, it's what I (and everybody else) did for years before Lightroom, and if you want to adopt such a workflow then yeah: you'll need a destructive editor that you like (or as I said, you can continue to use Lightroom in that fashion, by exporting new jpegs and deleting originals - really? that's how you want to go???). Reminder: NX2 works great on jpegs, and so is still very much a candidate in my mind - my biggest reservation in recommending it is uncertainty of it's future (it's kinda in limbo right now).

There is a plugin which will automatically delete originals upon export, but relying on plugins makes for additional complication too.
Which plugin is this?
Exportant (the option is invisible by default, but can be made visible by editing a text config file). To be clear: I do not recommend using Exportant for this purpose until after you've got everything else setup and functioning, and even then it would be worth reconsidering.

How to use Meta Data in List Definition

Hi there, In Custom List , I could create a Meta Data Column by UI, but don't know how to create a Meta Data column in my list definition by programming anyone has experiense? -Regards, Chi

Yeah, it's tricky creating a metadata column in CAML. You can do it, but it still requires a bit of code to wire up the column during feature activation.
Basically, you need to define your taxonomy field (and a hidden field for the label), include the taxonomy catchall fields (in your list definition), add an event handler to the list definition (that will update the taxonomy catch all fields when items are
added and updated), and then wire up your taxonomy field during feature activation (this is when you would check if the termset has been created, and assign the termset id to the field, etc).
Here's an example from a test project I created (with help from others). I've posted the whole project up to the TechNet Gallery, here:

Is meta data used for SEO if so how dose it work ?

Is meta data used for SEO? I would like to know how to create meta data for SEO use. I found this on a form with the label mete data for SEO. Can anyone help me understand what the parts of this code are used for?

Vinay has given you some good links, but I'll add a little bit more :-)
<meta name="verify-v1" content="+Yjk73MkziQFeIPyBcJtgXwi2LcwfLnAMazU0KtigIA=" />
That is a verification code, supplied via google if you have signed up for the WebMaster Tools:
https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/
It allows you to check some stats etc., once you have added the verification code to your page.
The only other Meta Tags you really need to use are the <Title> tag and the Description tag.
The rest of SEO is making sure that the web pages are SE friendly. Not many SEs take into account all those meta-tags these days.
Make sure that keywords are scattered through the pages, make sure that the <h1> and <h2> heading tags use words that are important to site as they help with SEO as well.
SEO can't be mastered in a day - there are people that do this full time and even they are constantly learning new ways to ensure good rankings in the SEs. :- ) It's not dificult, but does take persistence !
