Batch presets
Reuse IPTC presets across a group of photos while retaining per-photo overrides.
The problem it solves: Repeated photo assignments need consistent metadata without retyping the same fields for every image.
What you can do
- Create and reuse metadata templates or presets.
- Apply batch values to multiple selected photos.
- Use per-photo overrides when one image needs a different caption or field value.
Available options
- Preset fields, batch values, per-photo overrides, byline, location, and delivery settings.
Supported inputs
- A selected group of local photos and a saved metadata preset.
Outputs
- A batch of processed photo copies with resolved metadata values.
Workflow
- Choose or create an IPTC preset.
- Select batch fields and photos to process.
- Review per-photo overrides and write resolved values to processed copies.
Limitations
- A preset only affects fields configured for that workflow; empty or disabled fields are not implied to contain data.
Common questions
Can one photo override a batch metadata value?
Yes. Workflow resolver tests cover per-photo values taking precedence over batch values for configured fields.
