BULK AMENDING DESCRIPTION/CAPTION FIELD ENTRIES
« on: Yesterday at 01:58:28 AM »
Hi
Is there a way (or could there be a way) to amend existing captions with an additional piece of info IN BULK. E,g. I would like to add a copyright message at the end of each caption in the Description/Caption field so that (for example)
>Original Bulleid silhouette- West Country Class 4-6-2 No 34006 BUDE, and Battle of Britain Class No 34057 BIGGIN HILL, heading north from Evercreech, Somerset,  with the LCGB 'Somerset and Dorset' railtour, on the last weekend of operation 06/03/1966<
and other selected  photos on the contact sheet page becomes
>Original Bulleid silhouette- West Country Class 4-6-2 No 34006 BUDE, and Battle of Britain Class No 34057 BIGGIN HILL, heading north from Evercreech, Somerset,  with the LCGB 'Somerset and Dorset' railtour, on the last weekend of operation 06/03/1966 © John H Bird RAILWAY IMAGES UK<  or somesuch change.
It would save an enormous amount of time and would be useful for uploading images to Flickr which only pulls out the caption IPTC and not copyright or author details.
Thanks

John

Sorry guys- I hadn't read the excellent manual properly so have now found out that this can be done and very effectively. Photo Mechanic is brilliant!
