In print? The IPTC data is in non-image parts of the jpeg file, it won't show up in any way in a print made from the file. > Makes it useful for other photographers to find out what I did.

Yes, I like having the tech info in the file, and I leave my own there these days as well. It's very handy to be able to check out how shots were exposed. > Yup.

An amazing number are still stuck at 1024x768, though. People seem to be confused between monitor resolution and text size, and stop using higher resolutions when the default font size gets too small for them, even if their card and monitor will support higher. And lots of laptops are physically 1024x768 still. -- David Dyer-Bennet, <mailto:dd-b@xxxxxxxx>, <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/> RKBA: <http://noguns-nomoney.com/> <http://www.dd-b.net/carry/> Pics: <http://dd-b.lighthunters.net/> <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/> Dragaera/Steven Brust: <http://dragaera.info/>
