Exporting Images With Only Specific Metadata

How do I export images from Aperture with only specific metadata. Example: I want to export my images with only the copyright IPTC metadata (and maybe the keywords or contact info etc., but I don't want the world to see the EXIF data.
Aperture manual (page 507 I think) says to do this I need to make a separate version with only the metadata I want to appear. Er right? How does one do that then Apple!? I know how to make another version by the way, but how can I switch off/strip the exif, but keep the IPTC? Surely the monment I tick the include metadata checkbox in the Export panel and hit go this EXIF data will be inserted as it is inherent with the file?
Can anyone enlighten me please?

Time to hit the Aperture feedback page. If you include metadata, you include the EXIF data.
About all you could do is export with no metadata, import the new 'stripped' file and then lift-n-stamp the IPTC data onto it, then export that.

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

I need to replace a color on my image with a specific color from another part of the image. How?!

I have spent over 2 hours trying to figure out how to replace a color on one part of my image with a specific color shown on another part of the image. So far I have been able to go to "Replace Color" on my Adobe Photoshop version, but it seems that I can only change the hue and brightness of the color that it currently is. I need to use a specific color so this does not help me. Does anyone know how to complete the task I am referring to?
Also, please keep in mind that I am using Adobe Photoshop 6.0, not a fancy cs version or anything. So it's pretty old school...
Any help/feedback is greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Hi brookehelene,
You might consider making a selection the object and using a color fill layer set to the color blend mode instead of replace color.
I used the same picture as kendallplant did and changed the color on the same flower by sampling the pink color from the flower to the right)
(click on the screenshots below for larger views)
1. Select>Color Range
   (i used color range because the dialog is somewhat similar to the replace color dialog, except one is making a selection instead of replacing a color)
   (there are many other ways to make the selection such as the magic wand, so if your more familar with the other selection tools you can use those instead to make your selection)
2. Use the eyedroppers and fuzziness slider in the color range dialog to make the selection of the object.
   (in the screenshot below the white areas are selected and black areas are not)
   (your selection probably won't be perfect, but you can paint on the layer mask to refine the selection)
3. After you press the okay in the color range dialog you'll see the selection (marching ants)
   At the bottom of the layers palette press the Create New Fill or Adjustment Layer icon
   to reveal a list and choose Solid Color.
   Then use the eyedropper to sample a color from your image and press ok.
   Change the Blend mode for the color fill layer to Color (top of the layers palette)
4. As you can see a lot has been selected besides the flower.
    To refine the areas of color, paint on the layer mask with the paintbrush tool.
    Use white to add the color or black to subtract the color
    You can press the D key on the keyboard to get the default colors (black and white) in the toolbox
    and press the X key to switch between the two when painting on the layer mask.
Even though the above takes longer you can easily change the color or modify the areas that you want to change the color on.
To change the color you can double click on the color fill icon in the layers panel.
You can also use other layer blend modes besides color such as hue, so you might try some of the others and see what they do.

Illustrator CS4 exporting images with subtle grid overlaye

I've run in to a rather troubling issue where Illustrator seems to be exporting images with a very subtle white grid overlay.
The raw images do not have this grid, neither do the images as viewed in Illustrator.
The grid appears when exporting as .png and .jpg in a variety of resolutions.
Any ideas what's going on or how to remedy?

The images were part of a web mockup that was created in AI.
"Save for Web" did not change the outcome.
I defaulted to Photoshop, which fixed my immediate problem.. but still does not answer my question as to why this is now happening when I have completed this process trouble-free numerous times before.

Adding and /exporting/ image with Metadata problem

i have been able to add metadata to an image i need to publish but for some reason i am having a problem figuring out how to export this metada with the image.
i see i have an option to export as original or as version. does this affect whether metada has been exported?
also, can i export as PNG as get the metadata in the image or do i have to use something like jpg for some reason?
finally, is there a way to verify that the metadata has been exported along with the image to my desktop before i upload to the web?! it seems really sort of odd to have to re-import the image into Aperture to test the exported image to see if the metadata is there. i mean, i am glad i just did this with the image and metadata that i exported b/c the metadata is not there but it seems like this could be simpler.
TIA

What export preset are you using? Did you check the box to include metadata. This is all in the manual. PNG has poor support for metadata so you're best sticking to Jpeg. You can check for the metadata in Preview, or an of a 100 other photo apps.

Failed to export images with droplet

I've Created a droplet and tested it successfully in Photoshop, then I use this droplet by select it in Post-Processing when I export DNG to TIFF in Lightroom, but there's a problem:
1. If PS is not opened when I'm exporting images in LR, the droplet will work well, i'll get an processed TIFF
2. If PS is opened before I'm exporting images in LR, the droplet won't work, then I get an unprocessed TIFF
Due to Situation 1, if PS is not opened when I'm exporting images and I tried to exported 30 images with droplet, finally I'll get only ONE image successfully processed, because PS was opened when LR export the first image.
Is there any solution for this problem?
Thanks!!

Thanks for reply. I think I found out the solution but I still not sure what the problem is.
At the first time, I choose "Edit in Photoshop" in Lightroom to Open the DNG file in PS, then I start recording actions, and end up these actions with "cmd-S" & "cmd-W", this proccessed image won't save to the original file (because that's a DNG), it will save to a new PSD file next to the DNG. I think this is why when I use this Droplet to proccess other images, it can't complete the proccess.
So the solution is to create droplet in a normal way, open images (not DNG or other RAW files) from Photoshop instead of Lightroom, so that the file could be saved to it's original file.
In my workflow, I export DNG images to TIFF and select droplet in Post-Proccessing, so after export these images, LR will put them into the droplet, I'll get the result by just one click. I also check "Add to This Catalog" so I can adjust them in LR later.
Thanks a lot!!

Is there a way to take export dump with only selected objects

Hi,
I want to take a partial export dump containing only few objects of a particular schema in Oracle 10g DB.
I am trying to use "exp" utility for this.
The parfile used for this is as follows:
FILE=CSG_Objects.dmp
FULL=n
ROWS=y
COMPRESS=y
INDEXES=y
TRIGGERS=y
CONSTRAINTS=y
LOG=export_CSG_Objects.log
TABLES=table1,table2,table3...
With this I can only export tables but not other objects like views, procedures, sequences etc.
If I try to use other object name in TABLES list, I get errors.
Is there any way I could export other "selected" objects also?
Thanks & Regards,
Ullhas

There are 4 modes in exp and expdp. You can specify
full=y which will get all objects in the database
schemas = list which will get alll of the objects in these schemas
tables = list which get all of the tables in your list plus all of the objects dependent
on these tables
tablespaces=list which finds all fo the tables in those tablespaces and then does a table mode
export for the table list, including dependent objects.
Other than excluding/included a few objects, original exp does not have a way to specifically include certain objects. This was one of the enhancements to datapump expdp/impdp.
If you are running 10.1 or later, you can use datapump export/import. Now, you can do a table mode export and put in an include/exclude list.
include=tables,grants,table_statistics
or
exclude grants, index_statistics
If you let us know what you are trying to include or exclude, it would be easier to come up with a solution.

Export image with cursor legend

Hello,
I need to export waveform graph to MS word. To do this I am using Invoke node property "Export Image". While doing this, only graph area is being exported and not with cursor legend. In my report I need to show certain cursor values. So please can anyone let me know, how to do this??
Thanks in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have the same behavior with LV86 and 2009. Maybe you could use the invoke node Get Image.

How to export images with Project Name to be visable by Photo Mechanic.

Hello all,
I am trying to create another complete set of my images, that can be edited by outside programs (Photo Mechanic and/or Lightroom). I am doing this by exporting the images out of a managed library. I want the Aperture "*Project name*" and Rating fields to be passed to Photo Mechanic. And then I want PM to be able to do queries on the Metadata fields containing the Aperture Project Name and Rating. My intention is to use Photo Mechanic to rename the images and relocate the images but still keep track of the Rating and Project Name.
In Aperture, when I add a custom metadata item under IPTC and export the image, that custom metadata item does not show up in PM or Bridge for that matter.
How can I export images and have the Rating and *Project Name* be exported and visible in PM or LR or Bridge?
Thanks in advance,
Dick B.

There is not an easy way but Ian Wood's tool might help you out.
Personally I would just use the "subfolder format" drop down options available in all of the export and relocate dialogs to sort them into directories that are based on Aperture project name - easy enough considering those other tools use file system based folders for there organization structure anyway.

How to export images with meta data from iPhoto?

Hi
I have about 4000 family photos which have been scanned and imported to iPhoto. They are all dated the same day, naturally. I'm now in the process of adding metadata to every photo: location, faces, time and year, file name and description.
Once I have gone through every photo, I will put them into albums based on events and the meta data above.
Eventually, I will want to share all these photos with people who should like to see them (and who are not tech savvy...) I'm looking for the best approach to do to this.
1. Will all the metadata that I have added remain in the photos when I export them?
2. What exactly is the best approach to export these 4000 photos?
- As I have gone through all the hard work of sorting the photos in albums, is it possible to export these photos in the albums that they already in?
I hope to hear from someone out there. Thanks a lot
Best wishes

You need to have an application like EXIF Viewer for Mac OS X to check the files once you've exported them with the various checkboxes checked:

Exporting images with subfolders by album name

Hello,
I have a project with approx 800 images, organized in 12 different albums. Now I want to export all the images in a folder, which should contains 12 subfolders named with the original album names.
For example, I have a project named "friends" which contains 12 albums named "Emma", "Laura", "Tom", etc... A want to export in order to have this subfolders:
Friends/Emma
Friends/Laura
Friends/Tom
I tried the export-versions option "subfolder format", but I'm not able to do that.
Who can help me?
Thank you,
Paolo

One last idea
you could color label the pics.
For example all images of Emma in the album "Emma" get a red label, all images of Laura get a blue label, ....
There a seven colors available like in Finder. This perfectly matches with your needs^^ Seven persons get a different color each, one person gets no color. So you have 8 criterias. Lucky you, not having nine people :P
Click on your project with all 800 pics and their different color labels, select all and export them.
Aperture now will give each exported image the same color label as it has in Aperture. After export has finished you can easily put the images in a corresponding folder based on the color label...
Have fun

Exported images with large blank areas

I exported RAW images from Aperture as JPEGs. In many of them, large blank areas appeared instead of the images (ie: the top half of the photo is blank, except for a few squares scattered throughout). Did anyone have a problem like this? How can I solve it?

Yes, I had a similar issue as have others. There was at least one thread ... worth doing a search. Blocks on export image etc. for subject.
I can't recall the "fix" as mine disappeared with either (a) 1.1 and/or (b) doing NOTHING but exports!
(Yup, on a Quad designed for multi-tasking, it is sad isn't it.)
However, as I said, I'm ostrich-like working around a problem that may no longer affect me.

LR not exporting images with proper presets

how come I can edit an image and then save it by exporting it with preset it looks way different when I reopen the file. and I am not talking little changes I mean crops through peoples faces and super contrasty. it there a better way to save the images to be burned on to a disk later? i just upgraded hoping it would stop this problem. guess what????

My guesses would be that either:
1 - You are Exporting your images in LR without using the sRGB profile and you should be, or
2 - You have a wide-gamut monitor and are viewing sRGB images in a non-color-managed application or at least one like IE that doesn’t respect a non-sRGB monitor profile.

How to save/export image with 3D grid

I am in CS6 with the 3D workspace selected. I need to export/save the image with the grid viewable. I know this is possible as I have seen it on a few other images. The catch is I need it 300 dpi so I cannot just screen shot as png.

I don't understand what's the problem? Can you please elaborate? Show some code snippets and tell where you stucks on.
