View 4 RepliesFor some reason, the photo captions have started appearing in quite large font over the top left of the photo in Develop. How do I remove them? And why did they suddenly appear? (the answer to the first will probably answer the second).

I then upload them to SmugMug with the intent of allowing viewers to use the "search" function to view photos of only their player. Unfortunately, the SmugMug search engine ignores any caption that has 2 or less characters. I would like to append all my football captions in Lightroom 3 with an additional identifier to lengthen the caption so it will become searchable, for example append the "01" to "Titans01". I don't care if identifier is at beginning or end. I just want to be able to append an entire album at one time, not just one at a time.

I know how to organize photos in Adobe Bridge. What I'm clear on is how to create captions for the photos that will will be permanently linked to the photo files and can be output for on-screen or print albums / galleries.
Also, what is a good tool for creating output? InDesign is an obvious possibility for print; but I was wondering if there is some sort of plug-in or companion product for PS designed specifically for generating albums and slideshows.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm interested in using Photoshop Elements to tag and caption my 11000 photos with details of names and places, but can I commit the changes to the image files so that they are available outside the Elements environment? I don't want to spend a lot of effort and have tags/captions only available within Elements, I want to embed the details in my photo collection.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a few queries about Captions.How do I get the captions to print properly underneath the photographs when it is in landscape layout?I can do it if the photograph is in Portrait orintation. If it is in Landscape layout (i.e. rotate to fit is selected) so the photo fills the A4 sheet, the captions do not rotate with the photograph so they are at 90 degrees to the photo & look silly plus it is hard to read sideways if the photo is the right way up.
Also, is it possible to record data in custom fields & get these to print out underneath the photograph?
What I am trying to do is this: I have photographs from the local drama group. I want to record in the caption field the list of names of the people appearing gin the photo. Ideally I want to record the name of the play in a separate field & also print this out under the photo, or do I need to put everything into the caption field? So far I have just been adding keywords - I have one hierarchical list for the names of the plays and another list of the names of the people so each photo is tagged. Next stage is to go back through & add the captions.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI just realized that I have lost all my titles and captions when I had upgraded to LR 3.5. I thought when I was moving my LR catalogues to my new computer, I might as well upgrade. Now I find out that not only have all the original file names been lost, or dropped (only my custom name&sequence.dng shows up, but now i realize that all the hours & hours of titling and captioning all my images in LR 2.6 is missing. Does this mean that I have to go all the way back to my last back-ups of LR 2.6? and then what?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHaving a D100 camera and keywords filled out in Nikon View IPTC... would importing into Lightroom show up my keywords and captions? I neglected to add that I would not be importing them from my computer HD, but from a external HD. All my past work was done on a Gateway PC. Lightroom will probably be put on a new Mac. I also have all these photos archived on CDs. Will this change things? Will my keywords and captions still show up upon import? If importing from an external HD blocks this, what can I do, what program can I add that will get my metadata across?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to produce a slideshow in LR3 of a series of travel shots. Problem is that I want to insert a nice caption to each individual shot showing the place, country etc etc.
It seems the only way to do this is to enter the caption initially in the Metadata in the Library module and then select " Captions " in the Custom text box in the Slideshow module.
My problem is that I hate the clunky big white text that shows on the slideshow. I cannot seem to find anywhere where I can change this to a nicer text font, style and colour. You can change the style text in the text overlay panel but that then applies to the whole slideshow. I need a nice individual caption for each shot.
changing the font size that's used in the titles and captions of pictures when I create a web gallery.
I'm using LR to create web galleries of my son for my family to see him growing up and I like to use the title and captions to put comments about each picture. Some of the people who view these galleries on-line have poor vision and need to see a BIGGER font. The only font size for titles and captions seems to be embedded in LR and it's mighty small, any way to increase it?

There is a general folder named "Photos" and within are the sub folders for the photos. I did a simple drag and drop from my computer to the hard drive and expected Lightroom to simple show the new directory in the folder panel.
What would be the simplest way to re-access the files since moving them to the new hard drive?

As I understand it it's 16 lines for SD and 28 for HD in the UK. I've heard 20 lines in the US?
There's no real comparison to tv lines and Smoke's text size is there? As fonts are simply different sizes?
Most people on google searches say the only way is to know a font, say Impact at point size 20 is correct, or to use a vector scope.
Surely if you generate a white farme at pixel size 16x16 and drag this into your comp it would give you a measure of 16 lines? Is this reasoning correct?
