Hi

I ran a search for this question, but came up with a lot of old answers.

Is this feature available in the new version?

Regards

Thanks. Is there any way you know how to write the filename into an IPTC field?

For JPEG's. I want to put the filename into the IPTC field.

I have a set of files, and I will rename them all, but I want to keep the old filenames in the IPTC data.


How can I do this?

Thanks for your prompt responses to my questions! :-)

Oh, fill some fields with some other fields? :-) Currently not possible, but perhaps a good idea...

Great program.

These are two features that I think would make the IPTC experience easier.

1) add filenames to a selected IPTC field.
2) interchange IPTC fields. I.e. you can make headline = object name, or headline ="description".
3) editing the IPTC of Tiff files.

Thanks for your very prompt response Pierre, and I think that this is an amazing program. Slowly finding my way around it! :-)
