ShutterStock, IPTC standard and Xnview MP IPTC editor

Post by massimo.peca »

Good morning,
Do you know how the fields in Shutterstock correspond to those in XnView’s IPTC editor for photos uploaded via FTP?
The description matches, but the tags, category 1 and usage do not.
I asked Shutterstock’s technical support for help, but received misleading and inadequate replies.
Thank you

I suggest you fill out each field with a unique value, like the name of the field itself, then open that image in the other app. It will take you just a few minutes. Then you will know for certain exactly how the fields map.
