Caption Issue Emailing to Windows

[jeffkowalsky]

Hello,

I have had an issue lately when sending photos via photomechanic/Apple Mail to clients that use windows.  The captions are disappearing.

Different issue.  When saving captions, if i do not include the .xmp when saving caption, it is saved without any info. I have Add embedded ITCP (XMP will always be written checked) in the preferences.

Thank you in advance.

Jeff,

Are you applying an IPTC Stationery while sending your photos?  If so, is the stationery pad set to clear any fields like the Caption field?
If you send the image to yourself, do you see the caption or is it missing?

Are you using the IPTC Info dialog or the IPTC Stationery Pad dialog for this task?  If you want to set metadata on a single image (and see what it currently contains) then you need to use the IPTC Info dialog (click the 'i' button when you put your mouse over a thumbnail.)
