    Hi all,

    I need to make contact sheets in photoshop but I need to include all the file information/description copy. I’ve been trying to set up some sort of an action to copy and paste but nothing seems to work. I’ve got about 900 to 1000 images.

    I’m on a mac using CS3

    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Well, yes, I know how to make contact sheets and maybe I’m missing something here, but I was looking for a way to add data descriptions that are in file info to the contact sheets. Sorry if I didn’t make that clear.

    That’s already an option… you can add captions

    Use BRidge to add metadata

    OK, lets try this one more time. I know you can make contact sheets in Photoshop. I’ve been doing it for years. And I know you can have the file names as captions, but as far as I know that’s the only captions you can have.

    I also know you can use Bridge to create contact sheets using InDesign with meta data but as far as I know, not Photoshop.

    So now I ask again, and if you know could you please tell me how, can you make a photoshop contact sheet with file info. The files all have descriptions in the meta data that I need to add to the contact sheet. I really don’t want to use InDesign (although I am thinking I may have to).

    Thanks again
