Import .IPT Captioning Template into Lightroom

I'm a freelance photojournalist that has a client who likes to send me captioning template .IPT files. These are used in Photo Mechanic. Is there a way to use them in Lightroom? If not, I might have to make a change, and that would make me a sad panda.

If memory serves, .IPT files were created by earlier versions of Photo Mechanic and are not how PM does things today.  Unless a plugin developer has created something to map these to XMP files which Lightroom can read, you might be out of luck.

  • Importing TSV Captions/Metadata into Lightroom?

    Does anyone know if it is possible to import a TSV Metadata file into lightroom? I can't seem to find any option for this. Thinking about moving to Lightroom and the only way I can bring 400,000 captions with me is to hopefully Import. If I can't I'm probably staying put. Thanks for any suggestions.

  • How to import Hasselblad fff files into Lightroom 5 keeping 16bit?

    I have a problem importing Hasselblad fff files into Lightroom 5. I have seen articles that I should change them into DNG by Phocus.
    When a photo is converted into DNG file it seems that it becomes 8 bit when I open in photoshop. Since I am shooting with RAW, I'D like to keep it
    in 16 bit. Am I making sense? Or I am missing some information regarding DNG and 8bit business?
    Please teach me the best way.

    If opening directly from LR into Photoshop check your pref settings.
    Edit >> Preferences >> External Editing (Lightroom >> Preferences >> External Editing on Mac OSX)
    The usual choice is to render a 16 bit tiff or PSD file. Make sure it’s not incorrectly set to 8 bit.

  • Import GPS metadata info into Lightroom

    How do I import GPS metadata info into Lightroom from either my camera or from disk?  I'm using lightroom 3.2.  It shows up in CS5 Bridge, why not in Lightroom?
    oracle 52

    I downloaded the plug-in and used the metadata file preset for geo-tagging plus all the others in Adobe Lightroom 3 prior to "import" using the "Add" submenu.  Only under the geo-tagging preset in Metadata did I see the "labels" of latitude, longitude, etc.  However, the metadata for each of the photos for these labels were blank.  Yet, when viewing these photos on Nikon VX from which the photos was imported shows the correct GPS coordinates.  Why isn't this data being displayed in Lightroom as it appears from the original file on my hard drive?

  • Work-around to import Elements 7 catalog into Lightroom 2

    I know I can't import an Elements 7 catalog into Lightroom 2 because they were released at nearly the same time.  But I want to do it anyway.  What is the best workaround?

    You can write the PSE metadata (captions, tags, GPS locations) to the files with psedbtool. When you import the photos into Lightroom, this data will be read into the Lightroom catalog.
    You will lose PSE Notes, version sets, stacks, albums, creations and a few other things.

  • How can I import an Aperture Catalog into Lightroom and retain the RAW file as well as the files with the edits?

    I have several catalogs in Aperture that I would like to import to Lightroom 5 and I want to retain the original RAW files as well as the files with the edits.  How can I do this?

    Well, you can bring in the raw file (without edits), and you can bring in a rendered RGB file (e.g. jpeg or tiff) with edits baked in, but what you CAN'T do is bring in a raw file, with the non-destructive Aperture edits, and have Lr translate those Aperture edits into Lightroom edits.
    Put another way: no raw converter/editor can understand the edits of any other raw converter/editor. So, you have to work with a rendered version, and/or re-edit from scratch in a new raw converter/editor.
    PS - it would be feasible to write a rough translator which approximated raw edits in one world into edits in another, but such does not exist yet for Aperture -> Lightroom, that I know of.

  • Importing data from Picasa into Lightroom?

    Hello,
    I've been using Picasa as my main photography program for the last couple of years. Now I have many thousands of RAW pictures with labels and tweaks (brightness, contrast, cropping, etc).
    I'd like to import all of that data into Lightroom. Is there a way to do that? Even if there isn't an official way, I know the Picasa data is very open (ini files). Maybe there's a user-created script to do the conversion?
    Any pointers appreciated because I'd really like to switch over, but I can't afford to lose all that data.
    Cheers.
    --Noel

    I know of none, but I have to warn you that while Picasa is relatively open, it does no color management whatsoever (shame on you google - very disappointing) and any edits you did to brightness and such are likely to be useless in any properly color-managed app. Regarding the labels, which are probably relevant, there is a chance that picasa can export the industry standard and open format xmp sidecar files. Perhaps a little googling will turn up some tips.

  • Import PSE 13 catalog into Lightroom 5.0

  • Importing from Nikon D7000 into Lightroom

    Lightroom does not seem to recognize my Nikon D7000. I connect the camera, open LR, and nothing happens. I can click Import, but it doesn't recognize the device. The D7000 comes with Nikon's ViewNX2 software which they want you to use for import. Do I really need to use that to import photos from the camera, then import them from ViewNX2 into LR? That seems like a pain. I just upgraded to LR 3.6 so I don't think that's the issue.
    Thanks for any help!
    Carrie

    Carrie,
    3.6 will read your D7000 files. In general it's best to use a card reader, but the camera should work. I'm not familiar with the D7000, but my D300 has two modes for USB: PTP and Mass Storage. The camera has to be set to Mass Storage to read images from it. Your camera may be the same.
    If that isn't the case, try using Windows Explorer or Mac's Finder to drag and drop your pictures from the camera to your hard disk and then import from there.
    Let us know how it goes.

  • How does one import an html template into Adobe Muse?

    I have downloaded several templates advertised as Muse templates but they all appear to be html5 templates. Can one import them into Adobe Muse?

    You can't import an HTML template. You need the original .muse file. If they are Muse templates you would have gotten them as a .muse file.
