Annotating images 17
17.1 General
You can save additional information with an infrared image by using annotations. Annota-
tions make reporting and post-processing more efficient by providing essential information
about the image, e.g., conditions and information about where an image is taken.
Annotations are added to the image file, and can be viewed and edited in the image ar-
chive, and also when moving files from the camera to reporting software on the computer.
• You can set the camera to display annotation tools when an image is saved. Select
( Settings ) > Save options & storage > Add annotation after saving .
• You can also add annotations to a saved image in the image archive.
Note This section describes the procedures for adding annotations to a saved image in
the image archive. Adding annotations when saving an image works in a similar way.
