PrintEXIF Script for Photoshop CS

Thanks Joe,

Hopefully yours will work for me. For some reason I cannot get any of the others to output the proper information. I'll look forward to trying it out.

Thanks!

 

Hey thanks Joe, I think I will try this over the weekend one evening.

ps: wonderful shot!!! :shock: :shock:

 

Thanks, Joe. I'll give this a try as soon as I walk my way through it so I understand it. But I'll warn you - be prepared for some goofy errors on my first attempts!

BTW, great shot!

Joe,

Quick question for you!

I always used Windows XP to transfer the images to my computer. Recently I picked up "The Downloader" from Breeze systems to do this because it had some cool features.

Anyway, the question is, is "Nikon Transfer" a part of Nikon View? I have never used Nikon Transfer, maybe it is still in the Box! :?

 

Works with D70 too!

Hi Joe,

Thanks for putting this together and for sharing it with the gang here: much appreciated! 8) Just so you know, your script also works perfectly with a D70. :wink:

NIKON D70    ---    340mm    f/13.0    1/500s    ISO 400

 

Worked Joe!!

Only thing is the font, maybe I don't have that font loaded. Secondly the date did not appear, maybe I have the camera set up for the wrong date format. Lastly no metering mode showing on mine. I have it set for MAtrix but the EXIF data in Nikon View has it showing as Multi-Pattern. Other than those minor things, way to go and thanks!  



Oh, this was shot on March 17th, St Pattys Day. I did use flash but I guess that does not show.

Another cool idea would be one more line (or 2) for Species and location. That could be optional if you fill it in. Just a thought while you are on a roll here!  

 

Melissa,

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."

Do just that and it will work just fine: save the file as PrintEXIFv1.4.js, copy it to the PS/CS script location and find it under the File | Scripts menu... :lol:

 

Re: Script

Need more help please :!: ...

I sent a message to Philippe and while I am waiting for a reply, I wanted to ask more questions about this script.

I brought the script into Notepad and change the name from Joe Colson to Catz. Then I saved it as the file name Philippe told me too under 'Scripts' in PS.

So I brought a picture up and ran the script. When it was finished running, all I could see was very small print on the bottom left and all it said was Catz and the lens I used because when the 'lens' pop up came up, I put the lens I used.

No other info was listed under the picture.

Also Joe said "The script requires the user to save the EXIF information in the IPTC caption field using Nikon Transfer (an option in Nikon Transfer). "

How do I do this. Is this something that is done when I transfer the pictures to Capture before pulling the picture up into PS and run the script?

Now I want to know what I did or didn't do to make this script work?

Sorry to be persistent but I really want to be able to use this script.
