![]() ![]() Shortly after posting my question I convinced myself that getting to grips with the Exiftool was likely to be a more productive way forward. How very kind of you to offer to help Stephen. Otherwise if you wish to do this with Bridge Scripting, I would recommend posting your question to the following site if you don’t get a satisfactory result at this site. Will you be performing these tasks on a Mac or Windows OS? Generally a single line of code in ExifTool can achieve the same results as hundreds of lines of script in Bridge.Ĭan you supply a file sharing link to download a copy of one of the images in question? It only needs to be a 1 pixel square, this is all about the metadata.īBCCompliance = Mapped to which IPTC Core/Extension Field?Ĭampaign = Mapped to which IPTC Core/Extension Field?Įxclusive = Mapped to which IPTC Core/Extension Field?ĭo you wish to remove the custom values from the original custom metadata entries, remove the entire custom metadata entries and values or simply leave them as is? If you would like to do this fast, then I would recommend using ExifTool, I can help you through the learning curve if needed, I nave a little experience with using this free but powerful CLI tool. Or writing or adapting a script that would write that data back into standard fields supported by Bridge that I can work with. My basic need is to pull the old custom metadata info up front while I work on cleaning up the files in Bridge. And if there's a better tree I'd love to know what that is. If I'm barking up the wrong tree it would be good to know. Perhaps by "custom file info panel" this only allows the creation of NEW custom fields, not pull data from old ones.Įither way I'd be enormously grateful for a pointer or two from somebody who really understands this stuff. OR Maybe I'm completely misunderstanding the deal here. Where I'm struggling is that I don't know how to address those fields in the custom info panel's xmp file. I managed to get a custom info panel working in Bridge CC6 (Mac) with the following file:īut from that point on I have been unable to adapt it to show the custom data. When I look at the XMP list of raw data for an existing image I can see the relevant fields listed like this: Going forward we'll be keeping everything within the bounds of IPTC standard fields, but for the clean up it would be really helpful to display the custom fields alongside IPTC fields in the Info Panel. ![]() At some point in the past an external contractor got around some problem (now forgotten) by creating a custom metadata schema to track some specific needs of the client. ![]() This is for a project to restore some harmony to a rather large photo collection. I'm inexpert at scripting but I've been having fun creating a Custom Info Panel in Adobe Bridge thanks to this thread: Custom Info Panel as Bridge MetaData Panel. ![]()
