For example: filename ^t date ^t size ^t width ^t height ^t format PhotoShop Bridge and other utilities I've found allow you to export a fixed-width text file, but it's not consistent enough to allow easy export into Excel or Access (and then into DAMS) without some tweaking. I'm looking for quick, easy and smooth (creating metadata takes enough steps already!).
