In-Depth Information
At the beginning of this chapter, I mentioned that you'll want to set up your own
custom metadata template, so you can easily and automatically embed your own
copyright and contact information right into your photos as they're imported into
Lightroom. Well, here's how to do just that. Keep in mind that you can create more
than one template, so if you create one with your full contact info (including your
phone number), you might want to create one with just basic info, or one for when
you're exporting images to be sent to a stock photo agency, etc.
Creating Your Own
Custom Metadata
(Copyright) Templates
Step One:
You can create a metadata template f from
right within the Import window, so press
Command-Shift-I (PC: Ctrl-Shift-I) to
bring it up. Once the Import window
appears, go to the Apply During Import
panel, and from the Metadata pop-up
menu, choose New (as shown here).
Step Two:
A blank New Metadata Preset dialog will
appear. First, click the Check None button
at the bottom of the dialog, as shown here
(so no blank fields will appear when you
view this metadata in Lightroom—only
fields with data will be displayed).
