Viewing and editing metadata
About metadata and XMP
Metadata is a set of standardized information about a photo, such as the author’s name, resolution, color space,
copyright, and keywords applied to it. For example, most digital cameras attach some basic information about a file,
such as height, width, file format, and the time the image was taken. Lightroom also supports the information
standard developed by the International Press Telecommunications Council (IPTC) to identify transmitted text and
images. This standard includes entries for descriptions, keywords, categories, credits, and origins. You can use
metadata to streamline your workflow and organize your files.
