Captions under photo

I want to put captions under a group picture and save it as a .jpg. Then I want to be able to send these .jpg,s to several people using many different computers and have them be able to view it. (Thats why I want to use .jpg) My problem is when using Elements V2.0, the caption only shows when I print the picture. How can I get the caption to show when just viewing? I can put the caption on the picture and it is viewable but this is not practable with a large group.

You need to extend the canvas.
Open your picture
Go to Image>resize>canvas size
In the height field, enter 115%(my choice). If this does not provide sufficient room, you can increase it to suit by trial and error
Select a color for the canvas extension
Click on the anchor point in the 12 o'clock position
Enter the information with the type tool

Caption under photo

Is there an easy way to put a caption under a photo in CS4? I have a large text box with a photo and text, but am not having luck with a caption.

I don't believe there is an easy way of doing this in CS4 (anybody, correct me if I'm wrong) other than use a text frame with a specifically created caption paragraph style under the graphic itself (grouped with the graphic).
Just a note .. CS5 has a great new addition in that respect:

How to add a caption under a photo?

I have previously struggled to paste a caption under a JPEG photo for my web site by increasing the canvas size by an inch or two, entering the text in the space below, and then cropping off the additional space above the photo. Now I have 6 captions to add to photos for an article but when I try to paste the captions into the space under the photo it always pastes it in the center on top of the photo instead and I canot move it down to the bottom space at all. There must be a way to more easily add captions under photos.

Do you have PSE7? In guided edit there's an action for adding canvas beneath a photo, in the Action Player.

Captions under thumbnails in photo album

Hi,
I've been trying all sorts of things to get a simple caption
under each thumbnail in a photo album. The page is on:
http://www.georgeglazer.com/globes/table20/table20inv/table20inv.html
This is the code for the thumbnail that I have tried to make
work. The thumbnails all display and sort fine. But no captions
appear:
<div id="thumbnails" spry:region="dsInventory">
<div spry:repeat="dsInventory"
onclick="dsInventory.setCurrentRow('{ds_RowID}')" style="height:
130px; width: 100px;">
<img src="{tn}" alt="{title}" name="tn{ds_RowID}"
id="tn{ds_RowID}" style="left: 0px; right: 0px; height: 100%;
width: 100%;" />
<p class="caption" style="width: 100px;"><span
class="whitetext">{@maker}<br
/>${@price}</span></p>
</div>
<p class="ClearAll"></p>
</div>
Among the things I have tried that did not work are:
1. Adding id="{ds_RowID}" to the <p> tag.
2. Putting a spry:detailregion="dsInventory" div around the
caption text.
3. Using {maker} and {price} instead of {@maker} and
{@price}.
4. Changing the height in the spry:repeat tag to something
larger than 130px, but that just distorted the thumbnails (which
are exactly 130px each).
Any help is welcome!
Thanks,
Helen

Kin,
Actually, I had omitted the @ signs originally, and it didn't
work either way, but thanks for explaining that. I looked at the
CSS for the div containing the thumbnail, and there's nothing
limiting height (not specifically, anyway).
Here is the CSS for the div containing the thumbnail:
#thumbnails {
clear: both;
margin: 5px auto;
#thumbnails div {
position: relative;
float: left;
margin: 4px;
padding: 0;
display:inline;
#thumbnails img {
height: auto;
width: auto;
position: absolute; }
...and for the div that contains the thumbnail div:
#previews {
border-top: solid 1px #404040;
border-right: solid 1px #404040;
border-bottom: solid 1px #3a3a3a;
border-left: solid 1px #404040;
padding: 5px;
margin-bottom: 5px; margin-right: 5px;
float: left;
I do have the overall size of the preview pane specified
(style="width: 370px; height: 590px;") but that should be more than
enough room for 5 photos with 2-line captions. Is it the relative
or absolute positioning that may be the culprit?
--Helen
PS Let me assure V1Fusion that I did read everything
previously posted in this forum about photo album captions prior to
posting my question -- they all addressed the main image but not
the thumbnail, nevertheless, I tried various things suggested in
those posts before giving up figuring it out myself...

Book 1.) show no metadata under the photo, 2.)add caption/text under photo

Currently the Photo name is shown in the book under each photo. 1.) I would like to hide this information for printing. I played with the setting "enable/disable plate metadata" , but it has not impact, it shows the data no matter what this setting is.
2.) At the same time I would like to add my captions under selected photos. How to do this?
Thank you

Hi Peter,
1) For printing, I would delete the plate metadata completely. Go to Edit Layout mode, then click on the metadata box and press delete.
2) To add captions, again go to Edit Layout mode, click the "Add Text Box" button - this places a text box on the page you're working on. You can then drag this box wherever you like. To add text, double click in the box and type away. To format your caption, click the Edit menu, then select Show Fonts. Just make sure the text is selected before you try to change the size or font.
Hope this helps.

How do I get caption under landscape

How do I get a caption under a photo in landscape orientation? The "click here for caption" only appears in portrait orientation.

Thanks, but I tried that. It says portrait, but it still prints landscape. I tried turning off the printer. I called Brother. They said it was the Adobe software, but I've never had this problem before.

How to place caption under landscape

How do I get a caption under a photo placed in landscape orientation? The "click here for caption" only appears under portrait orientation. It's the last thing I have to do to complete my "album".

Two ideas I can think of:
1) Create multiple pivot tables and then display them one under the other
2) Create multiple measure columns such as "male_amt", "female_amt", "white_amt", "asian_amt", "black_amt", etc. for all the columns you need. Then you could simple stack them in a single pivot table.
Option #2 might give you the prettiest results - but also requires a lot more maintenance (for instance, if you reclassify ethnic groups, you'd have to go through the reports to add additional metric columns).
Hope this helps,
Scott

Spry gallery_pe, add caption to photo

I have created a dynmic photo gallery using the example files
included with the Spry demos. This dynamic gallery uses the
gallery_xds.js file. I am trying to add a caption under the photo.
I can get the caption for the first photo to show but it does not
change when the next photo is displayed.
Does anyone know how to do this? I am a novice as javascript
and not familiar with it much.
Thanks,
Linda

Thanks so much for the links. I have a question that I could
not find an answer to. This refers to the code provided by
epsilon718, on Monday, October 15, 2007 4:11 AM. It appears below
my question.
My question: The only part that is not clear is this:
================== index.html =================
1) in the div with id thumbnails, add the following to the
<a> tag: id="{ds_RowID}"
Here is the original code from the spry demo:
<div id="thumbnails" spry:region="dsPhotos">
<div class="thumbnail" spry:repeat="dsPhotos"><a
href="{path}"><img alt="" src="{thumbpath}"
/></a></div>
As you can see it is an a href tag. Where do you add the
id="(ds RowID}" ?
Here is the entire code provided:
Answer
Hi,
I was able to get the caption to show up with a few minor
changes to few of the files. The changes I made do not make the
caption appear on only the first image when in slideshow mode.
After the first image, they'll appear. Also, If you click on the
thumb, they'll show up. Find the changes with the file names below:
================== index.html =================
1) in the div with id thumbnails, add the following to the
<a> tag: id="{ds_RowID}"
2) In the div with id picture, add another div with id
captionText:
<div id="picture">
<div id="captionText"></div>
<div id="mainImageOutline"><img id="mainImage"
alt="main image" src=""/></div>
</div>
================== gallery_init.js ===============
1) modify the signature of InitializeGallery function to take
in the dataset as a parameter:
function InitializeGallery(ds)
2) replace the gThumbViewer.addObserver with the following:
gThumbViewer.addObserver(function(notificationType, notifier,
data)
if(!data)
return;
if (notificationType == "onSelect")
gImageViewer.setImage(data.href);
var row = ds.getRowByID(data.id);
Spry.$('captionText').innerHTML =
row['photos/photo/@caption'];
========================= gallery_xds.js =================
change the call to InitializeGallery function (line 86) by
passing in the data set:
InitializeGallery(dsPhotos);
======================= XML files ==================
add in your caption text as an attribute of the photo tag,
just like path, thumbpath, etc are.
====================== SpryThumbViewer.js ==========
in the Spry.Widget.ThumbViewer.prototype.select function,
modify the calls to notifyObservers to accpet 'a' instead of
'a.href':
if (a)
//this.notifyObservers("onSelect", a.href);
this.notifyObservers("onSelect", a);
if (img == imgs[0])
this.notifyObservers("onFirstSelect", a);
if (img == imgs[imgs.length - 1])
this.notifyObservers("onLastSelect", a);
I think that's about it. Give it a try and let me know if
there are any other problems.
If you can help, that would be great. Thank you, Linda

HT204022 i have several copies of my photos on my ipad under photos not photo stream There is no delete button when I tap the duplicate photos. How do I delete these pleas?

I have 4 and 5 copies of my photos under photos on my ipad. I do not have a delete button to delete them. Also, my icloud is upto date but my new photos are no longer streamimg to my photo stream.

Before deleting anything be sure they are actually duplicate photos. If you create an album on your phone, then add photos to it from your camera roll, the photos in the album are not duplicates; they only contain links to the actual photos in camera roll. (Albums are like music playlists; they don't contain the actual photo but just a link to it so that you can look at a subset of your photos.) Thus, if you delete the photo from the camera roll it will be deleted from all albums that may have contained it (just as a song would be deleted from any playlist that contained it if you deleted the song from your music library).
Similarly, photos synced to your iPad from your computer are all contained in the photo library. Just like albums created on your phone, any albums synced to your phone will only contain links to the actual photos in the photo library. If you delete the photo from the photo library, it will be deleted from any albums that may contain it as well. This video may help explain this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60MevRF53ck&feature=channel&list=UL.
All that said, you can delete photos from the camera roll by either opening them individually and tapping the trash can icon, or by opening the camera roll in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, tapping all the photos you want to delete, then tapping the Delete button at the bottom. To delete photos synced to your iPad from your computer you have to delete them by connecting your iPad to your computer, going to the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings, unchecking the photos you no longer want on your iPad, then syncing. Photos in photo stream are deleted by opening the photo, then tapping the trash can icon.

How can I insert large text captions in photos?

How can I add viewable captions to photos? I often send reports with a number of photos attached in a PDF file in Adobe Acrobat Standard. I would like the text comments in the photos to be viewable as soon as someone opens the adobe pdf file and looks at the picture -- without having to click on a little icon. In other words, the text would be embedded in the photo, and large enough to read when you first see the photo. Thanks for any help you can give.

Photo editing software makes more sense than Acrobat because you can extract the EXIF comment or description. But one could use the "text Touchup" tool to add text to the PDF. Standard does not provide a lot of scripting options unless you add the JavaScript Console Debugger.

My photo stream is no longer working. Both my icloud settings in my phone under "photos" as well as my pc icloud pictures are all set to "on" and pics are no longer uploading to photostream. What's up?

My photo stream is no longer working. Both my icloud settings in my phone under "photos" as well as my pc icloud pictures are all set to "on" and pics are no longer uploading to photostream. What's up?

I experienced this problem recently but was able to solve it by signing out of, then back into Photo Stream on the computer. This will temporarily remove your photos, but once you get signed back in, it will repopulate the photos. Be sure you have updated to the latest version as well.

I still don't totally understand the difference on my iPhone between PhotoStream (with iCloud icon), Photos (the icon) and Albums and Camera Roll (under Photos icon) and and Camera Roll (under Camera icon). I want to delete photos from my iPhone 4.

I don’t understand the difference on my iPhone between PhotoStream (with iCloud icon), Photos (the icon) and Albums and Camera Roll (under Photos icon) and and Camera Roll (under Camera icon). They seem to be more or less the same thing, but deleting photos in one place does not delete them elsewhere.
When I tried to import from my camera to my iMac computer the computer would not recognized 900 of the 920 photos on the camera so I had to (successfully) use the Image Capture application to import them.
I want to delete photos from my iPhone 4 in order to free up storage (I only have 8GB.) But in synching I do not want to delete any images from my iPhoto on my computer.
Is there a way that I can Delete All under Edit in either Photos or Camera on my iPhone and check about 20 ijmages to remain on the iPhone? I could find no command to Select All and then uncheck the 20 photos I want to keep.
I have the 8GB iPhone and the iMac with OS 10.9.2 and iPhoto '09 Version 8.1.2.
Help!

I have Version 6.1.3 because the clogged storage will not allow me to upload Version 7.1. Catch 22. This is basically a storage issue, I believe. I cannot delete enough stuff on my iPhone to allow me to either back up or upload the new OS 7. I am unwilling to pay for more storage in iCloud, so I want to delete stuff I don't need. But I haven't yet figured out how to successfully do that. I synch my phone and computer. I want to delete mail on the Mail app and photos and still keep my photos on my computer on iPhoto, but not on my phone. I seem unable to do that. Any advice?

I installed Nik:s suite of plug-ins for LR5 but for some reason not all of them were installed. In the end I uninstalled all of the Nik programs from my Mac but before I reinstalled them I opened LR5 again to check. Under "photo" and "edit in" the plug-ins were still presented but no programs opened, of course. after reinstalling the plug-ins one of the programs appeared twice in the list but not the others. I´m going to reinstall them again and I´m wondering if there is anyway of erasing the links to the plug-ins under "photo" and "edit in" ???

Wow that was really quick, thank you so much. Im not sure at all which version it was because i said it was around 4 years ago he bought it. I know it isn't under his username, since he's a PC person (ugh) so i know its probably registered to one of our actual names. isn't there some way to look it up since we did register it, because I'm not even sure where the disks are from when we bought it (we've moved a lot and also have two storage lockers, i know i would have kept it with other disks) but my cd rom drive is actually broken on my computer as well ( i think it got stepped on and is now squished and won't eject or run disks.)
So is there anyway they can look up that its registered to one of our names since we did register it when we bought and installed it, or do i really have to find the disk with some sort of proof of purchase (i know there would be no receipt after all this time)
either way, ill do what you suggested to the best of my abilities and thank you so much for answering my questions, i can't even open the program as its incompatible and find out the info from that) so I'm in a bit of a pickle and your response was so thorough and it didn't seem to be posted long enough to even write a well researched response, thanks, all the best,

Deleting photos stored under photos, not albums in photo app

I want to delete the large number of photos in within my iPad's photo app stored under photos, NOT those organized under albums in this app. How do I do this? I have checked Apple discussions etc with no success. It is taking up a lot of space on my iPad!

The photos that are shown under the Photos tab in the Photos tab are the same as are shown under Albums - it's just a way of viewing all of your photos on one screen, they aren't separate copies of the photos. So if you delete a photo from the Photos tab in the app, it will also be removed from its album.
To delete a photo from the iPad, then if it was taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc then you can delete them either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon top right of the box with the arrow coming out of it (Edit button on iOS 6) in thumbnail view. Photos that were synced from your computer are deleted by moving/removing/de-selecting them from where they were synced from on your computer and then re-syncing.
Note that if you've copied photos into new albums that you've created directly on the iPad, then effectively you've only created pointers to those photos and not created separate copies of them - so if you then delete the original photo, you will also be deleting all pointers to it (so it will be removed from all albums that you've 'copied' it into on the iPad).

My ipad 2 under photos/ photo stream put all my pics in one folder. Now when I pull up photo stream I have to tap pic and then it opens all my pics. It use to not do that.

Ipad 2 now puts my pics under photo stream in one folder s when I open it up I have to tap the folder to open all my pics. It use to not do that?

Hello Patrick1000,
This is expected behavior when you have "Shared Photo Streams" turned on. With Shared Photo Streams, you are able to create separate Photo Streams to share with others (notice the "+" at top left corner). If you wish to disabled this feature, please see below:
iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
On your iOS devices, go to Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream, and turn off My Photo Stream and Shared Photo Streams.
Thanks,
Matt M.
