Adding Notes to Your Picture
Exposure information is automatically saved with each
image. In addition, you have the option of saving some notes
of your own with each image. Just to the right of the name
field, click on the Info button to open the Info dialog. The
automatically-saved information is displayed in the Program
Generated Info box at the top of the dialog. You may add any
text note to the image in the User Notes text box. You may
add any printable characters, up to a total of 255 characters,
including the automatically-saved information, to the notes
saved with the image. Added info might include the lens
focal length and f-stop setting, lighting or setup details, a
job number, or a copyright notice. Although the computer’s menus are disabled, the standard Macin-
tosh text editing keyboard shortcuts for Copy, Cut, and Paste are usable for quickly inserting, delet-
ing, or changing these notes (the Copy, Cut, and Paste commands are not currently available on the
Windows version of ViewFinder).
