Hi, Is there any module to import Photoshop metadata, I’m using Photoshop album to order and categorized my pictures in my notebook, so I want to keep all original tags when I upload pictures to the Gallery, do you know any way to do that? Thks |

nope, there isn't such a module yet.
you could add one though. this needs some work and some php knowledge...
alternatives:
- code it yourself
- file a feature request (but given the huge nr of requests, it could take years until someone implements it)
- find someone else with the same interest and better programming skills to do it for you
- pay someone to do it for you
- forget about photoshop markup and rather use exif / iptc, since this is supported by G2 and photoshop

Can it be done, yes. The primary tool to get it working would be ExifTool by Phil Harvey which is able to read and write tags in many formats, including EXIF, GPS, IPTC, and Photoshop IRB. It is a perl command line tool, but should not be too hard to integrate. From there, it is just writing html forms showing what it available, and processing checkmarks as to what to copy. Getting fancy, one would also setup to do the reverse, putting titles and comments back into the Photoshop IRB info.
