IPTC Import

I have a large number of jpeg images with embedded IPTC data. When importing these to Library, I set up a preset to import all IPTC fields, but my data are not transferred with the image. Does LR import embedded IPTC data and if so, how is it done?
Peter

When you import photos, you're first asked to choose desired folder (which contain images you wish to import). After doing that, next form is opened where you can choose the way you import (Import at their current location, for example) and bellow you have "Information to apply". Here you can define, which default data should be written into metadata when importing. Among others, you can define something like... write "Test shot" in IPTC/Headline tag -that's just example. Now, if you allready have something in jpgs's Headline tag, but you check option to write something into IPTC/Headline tag (without defining what should be written), you'll get empty Headline tag in LR. Original Headline content in jpg file doesn't change -you just don't see it in LR.
It was just a idea which may not apply to your scenario....
Greetings,

  • Import Meta data

    Sorry if this has been answered before but is there a simple way to import my images, not from iPhoto, that have meta in .xmp files into Aperture. I do plan to keep my file structure and not actually import them into the Aperture Library.
    An automator action perhaps?
    I'm sure I'm not the only one with 20 or 30k images, meta intact in .xmp, to want to put this into Aperture. It may be the last hurdle to actually using the software.
    Thanks!

    HI Joe,
    As a professional news and sports photographer I cannot use Aperture for this problem alone. I live and die by my captions and if a photo isn't captioned, or incorrectly captioned, it might as well not exist at all. Fixing the IPTC import problem is No 1 priority for me.
    As it is at the moment only half of the caption (description) comes in and some fields are missing entirely. This is only with RAW files, JPEG files import perfectly.
    Whilst we wait for this issue to be resolved (and PLEASE can it be soon!) is there anyway of working with the IPTC from the JPEG?
    If I shoot RAW and JPEG together can Aperture show both the RAW and the JPEG side by side so that I can lift from JPEG and stamp the RAW with the IPTC data? Even better, can something be written into Aperture where I can select all the RAW & JPEG images and just select a command saying 'copy IPTC data from RAW to JPEG'? This would be a very helpful temporary workaround.
    Finally, and I've put this in the feedback, can we have a much bigger window for IPTC data entry? Personally I would like a pop-up window similar to PhotoMechanic, and I'd like to be able to save my caption so that the next time I import images I can just selected the saved caption instead of going through all the fields setting it up again.
    For Aperture to be used as a DAM for my huge library I need the IPTC to be fully featured.

  • Import Meta Challenge

    Your mission, should you choose to accept it....
    I'm one, I know there are others. You know the tune: 30k-90k RAW images with meta data in the .xmp files. I'd use aperture but........
    Can an automator action (or anything else besides one by one) be set up to take a jpg, tif, psd or any file with the identical name as the RAW file and then have the META lifted and then stamped into the corresponding RAW file in Aperture?
    My situation: 55k images, ALL meta in .xmp files but I do have processed jpg's with the same filenames and ALL meta intact. I just want to lift it from the jpg and stamp it in the RAW.
    Have you got what it takes to make this happen???
    Good luck, this tape will self destruct in 5 seconds...........

  • Has anyone found a way to import IPTC data from a csv?

    I have a lot of files with English keywords and captions in Aperture.
    I need to export this metadata and get it translated into French.
    I then would like to import that data back into the original files overwriting the original data.
    Has anyone found a way to accomplish this?
    Simply put I wish to add iptc metadata into images already in my Aperture database hopefully in an automated fashion from some kind of data file.

    methinks you are refering to this;

  • IPTC legacy Contact - not imported by 3.4.1

    Last year I tried out Aperture and found that it was able to see the 'IPTC legacy Contact' field. This is important for me, as it corresponds to the field "People" in the wonderful iView programme that I've been using for ever. It lists the people on my images. Recently when I upgraded to Mountain Lion, this old program stopped working however. And so I decided to buy a fresh Aperture, and import my pictures.
    However: the new version of Aperture does not import the IPTC legacy Contact anymore!
    This XMP:People field is equal to the IPTC:Contact (legacy) field, and in iView it is used to list the people on the image.
    I've checked the jpeg file using exiftool to see if Aperture can write fields using 'Metadata'->'Write IPTC Metadata to original', or do the inverse with 'Metadata'->'Update from Original'.  The result is:
    -- Aperture can write the IPTC legacy Contact field
    -- Aperture does not input the IPTC legacy Contact field
    That means that the new Aperture 3.4.1 version cannot do what the older version did half a year ago??
    Something else I notice, is that when I fill in the name of a face, this name is added as one of the IPTC Keywords.
    .. so should I try to copy my "XMP:People" = "IPTC:Contact" (the two are equal) to the Keywords?
    Is this is a known bug, where can I see a list of other known bugs in metadata handling?
    How soon it will be fixed? And will I  then be able re-read my metadata from the original files?
    Another question: in iView, I was used to being able to merge the metadata that I had entered with the fields in the file, where either information in the file or in iView would 'win' in the merger.  How should I do such an operation in Aperture?

    Same here. I checked on my iMac and an MBP in Aperture 3.4.1, MacOS X 10,8.2, and I see the same. Aperture exports the legacy contacts field, but it does not show it in the versions when importing an image.
    However, when I check the imported original/master image file, the IPTC field is not erased - the version just does not reflect the data stored in the legacy contacts field.
    Something else I notice, is that when I fill in the name of a face, this name is added as one of the IPTC Keywords.
    .. so should I try to copy my "XMP:People" = "IPTC:Contact" (the two are equal) to the Keywords?
    Keywords? or do you mean IPTC tags? The keywords are a special kind of metadata tags, and I do not see the "faces" names in the Aperture keywords. In which tag do you see them?
    if you want to use another IPTC field to store the Contact info, I'd recommend to copy your info to one of the metadata fieldds, that are not marked as "legacy". Any feature labelled "legacy" is likely not to be supported in the near future.
    Is this is a known bug, where can I see a list of other known bugs in metadata handling?
    I have not seen this bug reported before, and do not know of any list of known bugs.
    How soon it will be fixed? And will I  then be able re-read my metadata from the original files?
    Write a bug-report to Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/aperture.html
    They should be told, that users still depend on this legacy tag, otherwise the chances are slim that they will bother to fix it - the name "legacy" clearly indicates that this metadata tag is doomed and only supported for compatibility reasons.
    Your imported originals/masters still have this field and carry the data - at least mine do - so you might consider to write an Automator service to access them with a shell script using exiftool.
    But it might be easier in the long run to simply copy these data to a different tag that is still supported.
    in iView, I was used to being able to merge the metadata that I had entered with the fields in the file
    Aperture keeps the data you enter in the versions. Also, when you import an image file, the tags should be copied to the version. When you edit the tags and want to add these changes to the original file, you can use the command "Metadata > Write IPTC Metadata to Original". That will write your changes to the original file, but not merge the data.
    Just some thoughts - sorry that I do not have a solution for your problem

  • Importing IPTC keywords into iPhoto

    I have >10,000 photos from my research project with imbedded metadata including four keywords. These are in the IPTC field separated by commas.
    keyword_1, keyword_2, keyword_3, keyword_4
    When I import these into iPhoto I get a single keyword
    keyword_1, keyword_2, keyword_3, keyword_4
    If I click to edit this keyword, it immediately is broken into four separate keywords plus the original one.
    keyword_1, keyword_2, keyword_3, keyword_4
    keyword_1
    keyword_2
    keyword_3
    keyword_4
    The four individual keywords are what I want but I have to click on the keyword of each photo to achieve this. Extremely time consuming.
    Does anyone know if iPhoto can be made to import each keyword individually or a faster way to make iPhoto convert these to the correct format? I do have the ability to edit the IPTC data via terminal scripts so I could modify the original IPTC data if I only knew what iPhoto needs to import properly.
    I tried using semicolons to separate the keywords.
    i.e. keyword_1; keyword_2; keyword_3; keyword_4
    This failed as it just gave me a single keyword that no longer was automatically edited upon clicking.

    Hi Phil,
    I originally started this on your ExifTool forum. A chap there graciously provided, and helped to refine, a script using ExifTool which has me 95% of the way to my goal.
    I'm not a programmer so my understanding of the script is incomplete. It first extracts the data from a csv file and then uses ExifTool to write that data to the jpg files. I copied what I believe to be the relevant sections hoping that maybe someone here could spot the error.
    PHYLUM_CSV=`grep ${BASEIMAGE} "${RUBRICFILE}" | cut -d , -f 9`
    CLASS_CSV=`grep ${BASEIMAGE} "${RUBRICFILE}" | cut -d , -f 10`
    ORDER_CSV=`grep ${BASEIMAGE} "${RUBRICFILE}" | cut -d , -f 11`
    FAMILY_CSV=`grep ${BASEIMAGE} "${RUBRICFILE}" | cut -d , -f 12`
    KEYWORDS_CSV="1_PHYLUM_${PHYLUM_CSV}, 2_CLASS_${CLASS_CSV}, 3_ORDER_${ORDER_CSV}, 4_FAMILY_${FAMILY_CSV}, 5_GENUS_${GENUS_CSV}, 6_SPECIES_${SPECIES_CSV}"
    fi
    CAPTION_ABSTRACT_F=`exiftool -s -s -s -caption-abstract "${FILESPEC}"`
    KEYWORDS_F=`exiftool -s -s -s -caption-abstract "${FILESPEC}"`

    exiftool -m -P -overwrite_original_in_place \
    -keywords="${KEYWORDS_CSV}" \
    -subject="${KEYWORDS_CSV}" \
    "${FILESPEC}"
    Here is part of the ExifTool output for one of the files processed with the script. I edited out parts which I thought irrelevant.

    The keywords are written into both the IPTC:Keywords and XMP:Subject fields of the metadata. I'm not sure why they are written to both or which field iPhoto imports keywords from.
    I added the 1_PHYLUM_, etc tags so that the keywords would sort in the correct order in iPhoto.
    Strangely enough, the keywords are imported into Picasa as individual keywords but sort in reverse order.
    I'm studying your exiftool faq now.

  • Import images WITHOUT any IPTC metadata

    I've been racking by brain trying to work out how to do this, but cannot find a way, I'm sure it's something simple.
    When I import my files the keywords are always imported and put into the top of the keyword directory instead of nested in folders I have organised in the keyword HUD. To solve this I have to remove all the new keywords, then import my IPTC metadata using iView Media Pro and the excellent Annoture.
    Is there a way to import images without any IPTC data coming with them? I have tried 'Add Metadata From: All IPTC' and had it set to replace and left the fields blank, but this did not work.
    Any ideas?

    Ok, half way there. I downloaded an app called Pref Setter to edit the preferences by deleting the array strings that I no longer needed.
    Also you can adjust the hierarchy of the auto completion data. I found that helpful with the copyright field since they all start off the same.
    Need to still find a way to have the data automatically entered from a default setting, with out having to start typing.

  • Importing .xmp sidecar file doesn't populate IPTC info??

    Good evening everyone.  I've been trying to import .xmp files alongside some of my old movies to save me from having to retype the IPTC info such as location, etc.  I have a folder which contains the .mov file I want to import, along with the .xmp file of the exact same name.  I thought this was automatic (at least from my perspective), put I guess not?  The .mov file imports just fine, but Aperture doesn't seem to populate any of the metadata fields with any info from the .xmp file.  I've tried this with different videos/xmp sidecar files with no luck.  Am I stuck re-entering all the metadata by hand?  I really don't have much info, but I have several hundred files I'm trying to re-import, so it could be a long week.  In case it helps, here's the xmp sidecar file that was created when I used iView Media Pro software pre-Aperture:

    The Photoshop and/or Bridge forums would be more likely places to get answers to your questions. This forum is inhabited more by programmer types interested in implementing the XMP specification in applications we write.
    I'd expect CS2 to ignore CS1 panels so I doubt that's the issue. Panels don't interfere with each other--they just offer different views of the data. In any case, move the extra panels to your desktop and see what happens.
    As far as I know, all you need to do on the Mac is drag the CS1 application folder to the trash to uninstall it.

  • Lost IPTC meta data on TIFF import -- old and unsolved problem?

    Hi,
    this is my first post, after using Aperture on a casual basis for 7 months.
    Browsing the forum I found the same problem in older threads but the solutions do not help in my case: When I export pictures with IPTC I set in Graphic Converter, metadata will be imported from the RAW (NEC from a Nikon D80) and from JPEG files, but not from the TIFF, whatever encoding or byte order I choose.
    Any help in that matter?
    Thanks,

    You didn't say which version of Aperture you are using. Up until the recent updates I found Aperture missed, or cut off, a log of IPTC data when I imported RAW files. This seems to be solved with the current version, but ratings still don't get imported.
    I used Annoture (http://www.tow.com/annoture/) to copy over the data. I would import the images into Aperture, then also into iView Media Pro. I'd select all the images in Aperture and then run Annoture. Annoture would take all the IPTC data from the iView catalogue and copy them to the selected images in Aperture (also works on selected projects I think).
    It's a long winded solution, but did the job.

  • Import IPTC

    I am starting to learn Lightroom.  I have the Lightroom 2 book by Martin Evening.  I have tried to read and take notes on basic Lightroom set up,  importing and organizing photos etc...  There is a lot to go through.  I have not found yet (or missed) one of my most serious questions.  When you import photos into Lightroom. (I have a Nikon D100 Camera with Nikon View)  This means for my version of Nikon View I can attach extra data like KEYWORDS, CAPTION, PLACE  to every individual photo by the IPTC field within Nikon or Nikon View.  My million dollar question is:  Will all this IPTC information transfer into Lightroom when I import pictures? I mean automatically, not having to go into Lightroom after import and manually fill out a data field for each picture that was imported.  (Each picture being imported into Lightroom will automatically have it's KEYWORDS, CAPTION, PLACE(or IPTC fields) transfered into Lightrooms data field right after being imported.) (If all has been arranged right in Lightroom beforehand)  I can't find this answered anywhere in the book.  Maybe it is taken for granted you know this, or maybe I missed it, or maybe it's kind of implied.  If Lightroom does not do this.  Is there a plug in for Lightroom that will do it?  Or is there another program that can do it?  I have a lot of pictures digital and film and I do not, or can not take the time to do this by hand.  Please, I love this book, I love Lightroom.  The book is beginning to teach me everything about Lightroom.  This is one big thing I can not find out about.   My computer will not support Lightroom so I would have to get another computer etc... for it in the future.  So at this time it is no use to ask these questions.  But anything else you might need to know, ask!   Thank You so much for help!

    Sandy,
    As I don't know or own Nikon View, I can't give you a definitive answer. But yes, in general, LR will import IPTC data and record it in the catalog along with your image. If you like, post a sample image here and I will import it into LR and show you what's been recognized as Metadata from it.

  • Importing metadata to IPTC

    I work for a museum with large photography collections. We've created tens of thousands of digital image master files, along with database records for each image. In the interest of relating metadata to images in a more reliable way over time, is there a way to import data--and our database allows us to export data as XML and ascii, along with a handful of other formats--into image IPTC profiles using Bridge or some other application? Is there a way to do this in large batches?

    If you can't find a program that will do this for you, as Daniel mentioned, a script can be written to import your data from a csv or xml file into your metadata.  You can also create custom metadata panels with custom fields that might serve you better than the "stock" fields in IPTC.  We have something like this at work, where our photogaphers use a bar reader to create a text file of the parts they shoot.  then we have a script that imports that info into the photo's metadata.  Before you spend too much time on finding a solution for this, you might want to wait until Adobe finalizes their transition from Flash Panels to HTML5 panels sometime this year.  You don't want to spend hours finding a solution only to have to find another one.

  • Importing IPTC data into LR database

    I have a many jpeg images on my HD that have basic IPTC data incorporated. Just to set the scene, in the system I used to set this up, I have a short 'Title', such 'Peter enjoying a meal in Venice" and a more wordy description, such as 'This restaurant overlooks the Grand Canal with St Maggiore on the other side. Superb meal consisting of: etc'. For IPTC transalation, I set 'Title' = IPTC Headline (and for a reason to do with the system, IPTC Object Name); 'Description' = IPTC Caption/Abstract. (These are the IPTC tags provided by the system).
    For importing into LR, I have set up an IPTC preset to include Basic Info - Caption, IPTC Content - Headline, IPTC Status - Title. The successfully imports my short 'Title', but NOT the description.
    Can anyone please advise how I can import the description.
    Peter

    You can store the list of data from the Excel sheet that you have read already into an ArrayList
    Then go through the JDBC tutorial, and learn how to insert a single record into the table.
    After you understand how to insert a single record, you can iterate through the ArrayList of data and insert them into the table in the database.
    If you know JDBC, see if you can use OR Mapping frameworks like Hibernate or iBatis, they make it very easy to manage database in Java.

  • Importing IPTC Description to Lightroom 4

    How do I import the IPTC "Description" field into Lightroom 4 from the 7000+ metadata of photos I worked with in Bridge (CS4)?

    There's a "Save to SD" command in the menu. The tracks are exported to the

  • Importing files with embedded IPTC metadata - Workaround?

    I was hoping the the "metadata improvments" that Apple delivered with Aperture v.1.1 would include the ability to import legacy files with IPTC and XMP metadata embedded by Photoshop, iView, Photo Mechanic, and other similar programs.
    Unless I am missing something that ability is still not a part of the Aperture program.
    I really like Aperture and think Apple has got many things right in the new program. I would like to make it my primary tool for digital image management. That would require the ability to read into the Aperture Library the metadadta written by other programs.
    Does anyone have a workaround for importing files that lets other programs IPTC tags be imported or connected with the files.

    Gilles-
    I think your problem is likely that you have the option to stack the copy with the original turned on. First, right-click on one of these photos and go to the stacking menu. If Unstack is not grayed out then you have a stack -- select Unstack to reveal all copies.
    To change the automatic stacking of edited copies from Photoshop, when you next choose to edit a file, in the bottom left corner of the dialog is the check box for unstacking. Clear it, and that choice should "stick" until you change it again.
    Hope this helps!
