Fred E. at NC State brought an important tip for users of Adobe Lightroom to our attention the other day. It seems that Lightroom uses a different naming convention for IPTC data than Photoshop does. Here’s his breakdown of some critical name changes that you should be aware of - the Photoshop header is first, followed by the nomenclature that Lightroom uses. The fields work the same way.
PHOTOSHOP --> LIGHTROOM
Author/Byline --> Creator
Description --> Caption
Provider/Credit --> Provider
Supplemental categories --> Other categories
If you’ve got questions, don’t hesitate to ask - we’re here to help.
And thanks, Fred! We owe you one.
