I want to stamp capture date/time, focal length/aperture/iso, and perhaps body/Lens used on my images. Something that would allow me to select where on image this information goes and if it could do transparency ala LR4 watermarks, that would be great. Batch processing of all images in a folder (and perhaps any subfolder) is very high on must-have list.
I googled and found this software but am not familiar with it: //www.betterjpeg.com/stamping.htm
Anyone with experience with it? Or what other software would get this done? I use Windows and have LR4 and also PS CC but am just starting with PS so not much experience with it. There seems to be scripts for it to achieve what i need but they seem complicated and not sure about the batch processing part. |

| Have you had a look at LR/Mogrify for Lightroom. Installed as a plug-in and will stamp any information on images when exporting images. |

| Thanks - LR/Mogrify seems to do what i need. But for existing JPGs that are already exported out of LR (or dates back before the time i started using LR) - that BetterJpeg seems to fit the bill there. Haven't tried either of these yet. Will do once i find some time. |

Mogrify uses ImageMagick to insert the datetime to the image. A command line utility for image manipulation purposes.
For example adding the EXIF:DateTime as an overlay as script to every file would require a batch file with the contents something like:
FOR /F %%x IN ('identify -format "%%[EXIF:DateTime]" %INPUTFILE%') DO SET DateTime=%%x
convert %1 -pointsize 20 -fill black -gravity northwest ^ -annotate +0+0 "%DateTime%" "%~p1date_%~n1.jpg"
And please make a backup before running anything like this. I haven't had a look at BetterJpeg, but I'm sure it's easier :)
PS. Did I mention the importance of backing up everything :) |
