After trying most of the scripts that have been posted on the DPReview Nikon Forum to extract EXIF information and print it in a frame at the bottom of a web-sized photo, and learning a little about JavaScript along the way, I have constructed a script (based largely on Fescar's script) that works with D2X, D2H, D1X and D100 files. It may work with D70 files but I don't have a D70 and can't test that functionality. It works on a PC but I haven't tested it with a Mac. But it's written in JavaScript so it should work on both platforms.
The script requires the user to save the EXIF information in the IPTC caption field using Nikon Transfer (an option in Nikon Transfer). The script can be copied from: http://www.joecolson.com/PrintEXIFv1.4.txt and saved as PrintEXIFv1.4.js using Notepad (be sure to keep the .js suffix) using the Unicode encoding option. The script can then be copied to the Programs>Adobe>Photoshop CS>Presets>Scripts folder (on a PC). In Photoshop the script should then appear as a selection in the Files>Scripts menu when Photoshop is opened.
The user can (and should) modify the script to show the correct name in the copyright field, and can modify the script for different frame colors and text colors. A dialog box appears when the script is loaded allowing the editing of lens information and the appending of TC information (that does not appear in EXIF).
The result of using the script:
I welcome your feedback and suggestions for improvements, bug fixes, and additional features.
