Last week, we looked at a process for, applying the data during the Bridge “Import Photos” process. Before that, we looked at. However, I’ve not forgotten all the artists and designers out there who are creating images that don’t come from a camera. Today’s tip will cover adding copyright data directly in Photoshop, and automating it completely. Note that Photoshop will recognize images with copyright status set, and will add a small symbol into the title bar of the image, as shown here: In order to set this data, we will build a process for adding this to our images.

Re: Photoshop saving issue (FILES TOO LARGE) QuimRibes Oct 26, 2016 12:07 PM ( in response to kylet17468902 ) I suspect that my final.png contains extra metadata only on the files where I have used a vectorial smart object during the design process. IWatermark Pro for Mac and Windows can exchange exported watermarks. As a standalone application it works with Lightroom, Photoshop, Picasa, ACDSee. Add our proprietary invisible StegoMark watermarks to embed info in a photo, QR Code. People to copy your work because it does not appear to be copyrighted.

The process can be segmented into three basic steps: • Create a metadata template containing the copyright data we wish to add; • Create an action in Photoshop that will apply the template in one click; • Create a special setting that will run the action automatically every time we open a file. The setting has a scary sounding name, “Script Event Listener,” but it is easy to set up and I’ll walk you through it step by step. Part 1 – metadata template Fortunately, we covered the basics of step 1 last week, so for step by step instructions on creating the metadata template. We will use the very same template in this week’s tip. Part 2 – create the action Once we have a metadata template ready, we can move on to creating an action that applies our metadata. Actions may sound intimidating, but don’t worry – I’ll walk you through it. We will simply use our action to record a few steps in our workflow.

Here’s how we’ll do it. Start by opening a blank document ( File > New and accept the defaults). Next, open the Actions panel ( Window > Actions).

So that our actions will be easily stored and backed up later, we will create a new action set, which is similar to a folder that holds your personal actions. Click the icon to Create New Set as shown. Next, give your new action set a name.

I called mine Mike’s Actions. Now your set is ready to hold the action we will create.

Make sure the new set is highlighted, and click on the icon at the bottom for Create New Action as shown: In the New Action dialog, we will need to give our action a Name (I called this one “Copyright2010”) and make sure that we designate the Set that we just created above (“Mike’s Actions”). Once these are entered, we click the button labeled Record. At this point, the action is recording, and any steps you take will be documented in the action. Don’t feel nervous or rushed, there is no time limitation involved. Just take each step slowly and carefully.

Notice the action name appears within the new set, and the red “light” comes on, indicating we are recording: Now that we are recording, From the menu (not via keyboard shortcut) choose File > File InfoLook to the bottom of the dialog box, pull down the triangle next to the template name, and choose the metadata template created earlier (in our previous tip last week): In order to apply the metadata in the template, Photoshop must know how to deal with data that may already be in your document. You have three choices. For our purposes, we will choose “ Keep original metadata, but append matching properties from template.” This will not overwrite any existing data that may be present. Click “OK” to accept, then click “OK” again at the File Info dialog box. Look back to the Actions panel, and notice that a new step was added to our new action: “Set File Info of” – this is the record of the step we just performed. Now, click on “Stop playing/recording” and the action has been successfully completed: Now that our action is complete, we can run it any time by selecting this action, and clicking the “Play” icon – the action will add our copyright data. Part 3 – create the Script Event Listener Again, this sounds scary, but it’s straightforward – and this is one of the coolest automation features in Photoshop.
