I've never really worried with metadata before. Now I have a very nice
image database for presenting web based proofs to my clients that can
be searched by keyword... ImageFolio... so I'm trying to figure this
out and going nuts in the process. I'm using OS-X versions of iView
Media Pro 2.5 and Photoshop CS. If I add a keyword in Photoshop via
File info, it shows in iView and in ImageFolio. If I add a keyword to
that file in iView, it shows in Photoshop's file info and ImageFolio.
However if the file has no keywords to start with and I add them in
iView (and properly Sync Annotations), the resulting files show no
keywords in Photoshop or ImageFolio. I would love to be able to add
keywords in iView as it's interface is by far the most convenient of my
options.... but how the heck to I get them to be recognized elsewhere.
I use iView rarely so maybe I'm missing some obvious setting.
btw you can examine ImageFolio at http://www.bizdesign.com I plan to
eventually run the e-commerce version. I just put the "Pro" version
with several ad-ons onto my OS-X server this past weekend. Working
very well so far. Its an amazingly simple and powerful piece of
software. I had one minor issue with an email function. I gave
bizdesign log-in info for my server. They got in and rummaged through
the thing and had it sorted in no time. The whole transaction happened
via a few emails over a couple of hours. So far I'm very impressed.
