Exporting an ebook, no metadata?

I've been going through this multiple times, but I can't seem to figure out what the problem is.
Through File>File Info, I add metadata to my ebook. But once I export the ebook and view it, the metadata is nowhere to be found. The file name is used as the title and it's by "Author Unknown." The only metadata that gets exported is what I add in the publisher metadata option that appears in the export screen.
Also on this note, EPUB Validator keeps giving me a warning for OEBPS/content.opf, line 6 position 24 and the message is "title element is empty." Some searching on Google told me that this means there's no unique identifier, but I have entered one in through the export option.

I'm not sure what the problem is. The OPF has no metadata in it, and I've checked the "include document metadata" option. Does it have something to do with the fact that I've put this ebook together from an InDesign Book?

In iPhoto, how can I export images with the metadata - including the title and caption information - intact as part of the image?

Export .CSV of Catalog Metadata

I would like to be able to show a set of photos (from a folder, collection, filtered set, or whatever), then be able to export all of the metadata for those photos into a .csv file. This would make it possible to load this information into Excel or a similar product where I could generate metrics and reports on what percentage of them time I am using a certain zoom setting, apeture, shutter speed, or what have you. Being able to retrieve this information from the catalog in this manner and to trend it over time would allow for more inteligent purchases in the futue. For example I may really want the new 600mm lens, but I shoot 97% of my photos below 100mm. I could see this info being quite handy for a number of things. On the other hand, built in reporting within Lightroom would work just as well, and it might round out the toolset that it provides.

Export to PDF with MetaData

I have a script that exports each individual page to a pdf with each page having it's own metadata.
It works fine except for on small thing.
The keyword array looks like this in the final PDF.

You mean rendered on top of the image? That info is already embedded inside the image as metadata. To render metadata on top of your image, you can use the slideshow module, add a text overlay with your custom metadata and export to jpegs. You can do similar things inside the Print module but you cannot control the placement of the text.

Export Bridge Assets including metadata into searchable web gallery

Hi,
We have several thousand images that we have tagged with metadata in Adobe Bridge. We want to be able to export these images and their associated metadata into a searchable web gallery so that customers can search keywords or at the very least pick attributes in order to narrow down the image selection process.
What software has the ability to do this?
Thank you!
-Mike

Apologies.. my advice may have been wrong.. it is a while since I figured it out.. trying to remember what it was I did..you do have to shorten that file name.. but it may not be the caption you need to change. I suspect I may have selected all the images.. then gone to meta data batch change and done something under the custom button which then applied to all images.
In my case I needed to get the web address for the gallery created from:
http://homepage.mac.com/farish/Smartbins™%20Chewing%20Gum%20Bin%20and%20Cigarett e%20Bin%20Image%20Gallery/
down to:
http://homepage.mac.com/farish/Chewing%20Gum%20Bin%20Cigarette%20Bin/
I did manage it but can't quite remember how I did it.
I will keep playing and when I figure out what I did that worked will post again.
The web gallery name you choose affects how Google sees the site as when you publish the web gallery - the web gallery name can pop up in Google
It's quite difficult to figure out exactly what to do. If anyone else knows a definitive answer please advise!

Exporting from Lightroom w/metadata

I want to export about 35 images to my desktop. One of the Metadata options is "minimize metadata". Does this mean that every keyword that I input will be stripped from the imag?. Since these were scans, I did put in as much IPTC info into each image, such as the Creator, copyrightnotice, my contact info, etc. But I also input a bunch of keywords. I also noticed that these keywords did increase the file size considerably. So, if I "minimize metadata" what exactly am I left with? just IPTC?

Export Oracle tables and metadata to file for importation into another Db

Hi all,
In relation to past posts I'm wondering if a tool exists that allows one to export chosen table(s), along with associated metadata (hopefully automatic incorporation of associated triggers etc) to an export file and then add (import) this data to another Oracle Database?
Looking at remote application development on specific data on a 'standalone' PC running Oracle XE at home.

Hi,
well there is only a version of datapump.
You can set a 'VERSION' parameter for compatibility..

Can't export MXF and preserve metadata

I want to take a file from the bin, export from MXF to QT, and preserve the metadata. Oddly, there seems to be no workflow in Adobe capable of doing this.
I can't import the MXF straight into AME, because it's from the C300 which splits up the clips into 2 GB chunks, which only Premiere Pro seems capable of rejoining.
I can't send the MXF straight to AME from the Premiere Pro bin, which would be a nice functionality, but sadly, it seems I have to send it from a sequence, but...
I can't send the MXF to AME from a sequence, because then all the metadata from the clip is lost.
I can't modify the metadata in the export dialog, because timecode box is greyed out and zeroed...
Any suggestions?

Aha! I found that I can export from the source monitor instead of the timeline, which preserves all the metadata.

Exporting/Sharing Custom XMP metadata schema not possible?

I've written a Python script which automatically encodes Quicktime files which I've mastered out of Premiere Pro CC with embedded custom XMP metadata (created using "New Schema" in the Metadata Display panel). I'm using the embedded custom metadata to drive the Python script (e.g. "Spot Title", "Client Name", fields etc etc), which encodes the source QT file to several different formats, based on the delivery specifications of various local TV broadcasters which the encoded files will go to.
Everything about the XMP metadata entry/writing/parsing is fantastic. My only hitch is in the exporting/sharing of the custom metadata schema which I created for this purpose. I would like to roll the schema out to the other editors in our facility, so that they can also enter the XMP metadata on their own systems when they export out master timelines from Premiere.
But unless I'm missing something, I can't figure out a way to "share" or export my custom schema for use on another system. Is this not possible in Premiere Pro CC?

There's no feature for exporting and importing custom schemas, but it's entirely doable. Here are the path to the custom schemas
MAC: Macintosh HD ▸ Users ▸ <username> ▸ Library ▸ Application Support ▸ Adobe ▸ XMP ▸ Custom File Info Panels ▸ 4.0 ▸ custom
WIN: C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\XMP\custom file info panels\4.0\panels [I can't vouch for this path as I'm on Mac at the moment and it's been ages since I poked around for custom schemas, but this should at least be the right neighborhood.]
You might also be interested in sharing your custom metadata display profiles. They in Documents ▸ Adobe ▸ Premiere Pro ▸ 8.0 ▸ Profile-mapes ▸ Metadata Preferences.

How to export full dump and metadata of particular table

let us consider mytest schema is having 6 tables
tname tabtype
myt table
myaxpertlog table
abb table
ccc table
ddd table
xxx table
now from this schema i want full dump and also from myaxpertlog table i required metadata only not records.
c:> export mytest/log file=20130409mytest0904pm.dmp tables=(myaxpertlog) rows=n
if i tried i am get only one table but it does have records.
Not like this.

Hello,
I follow a smart way to do this:
1-Create a parfile then put the conditions in.
2-put in this parfile the conditions
directory=DPUMP_DIR
dumpfile=dumpfilename.dmp
logfile=logfilename.log
schemas=yourschema
query=Yourschema.myaxpertlog:"where 1=2"In this example you will get all the tables you want with data inside the schema name you provided.
The table myaxpertlog will come with metadata only because the condition 1=2 will never occur.
Please note that this condition will apply only if you want to export those tables from the same schema.Kind Regards

Export to iPhoto with Metadata

I am using LR 1.4 on an iMAC with OSX 10.5 and exporting to iPhoto which streams to my Apple TV and displays the photos nicely on our Plasma in our Family Room. I have entered information such as where the shot was taken etc. in the Caption area in LR. Is anyone aware how I can include that info in the export to iPhoto embedding it inside the photo. My goal is to be able to view the photos with a small area showing these captions.

You mean rendered on top of the image? That info is already embedded inside the image as metadata. To render metadata on top of your image, you can use the slideshow module, add a text overlay with your custom metadata and export to jpegs. You can do similar things inside the Print module but you cannot control the placement of the text.

Export photos with original metadata

I have original photos that states the time taken and all other datas of my camera but once I edited and export from aperture, the new photos do not have the original metadata in it anymore. Is it possible to export photos with the original/master metadata?

How are you viewing the "metadata time"?
The file creation date is not the same as the metadata field "Date".
To view the metadata of an image-format file created by exporting an Image from Aperture, open it in Preview (the app that comes with OS X), run "Tools➞Show Inspector", and click the "Exif" tab.

How to export and NOT include metadata or EXIF data

When I export versions, each photo has the metadata included. How do I export without any information in the photo?
Any exported photo I do and you open it in EXIF Viewer, all the camera info, exposure etc… is all there.
I export to JPG from NEF D300 files.

In the "Export Presets" you can de-select the option "Include metadata" at the top of the window. If you want to then you could create a new preset that does not include your metadata, so that you have one with and one without metadata.
When you export your files then be sure to select the correct preset.

Exporting EXIF and other metadata

I would like to export EXIF data into a spreadsheet format for my photography course assignment, but the "Export Metadata" menu option only puts out a limited set of metadata fields. I downloaded a trial version of Aperture 2 but that doesn't seem any better.
Is there any way of exporting the full set of metadata, or at least the EXIF data?

If you're comfortable using the command line, exiftool will do this for you.
When my house flooded back in September, I had to take pictures of all the damaged items in the house for an insurance claim. After adding the metadata and exporting the images as jpegs, I used exiftool to extract the metadata into a csv file for importing into a spread sheet. The csv file contained the caption, keywords, filename and headline. Just google exiftool.
