Hello,<br><br>I'm trying to migrate from Adobe Photoshop Album. I've got over 5k photo's, so<br>re-tagging isn't an option. So I'm trying to automate this. With the<br>tool "PSATool" I've managed to put the tag information from Photoshop in a
<br>text file. Here's a small sample of the file.<br><br>--BEGIN EXTRACT--<br>d:\documenten van peter\mijn<br>afbeeldingen\fotoapp\DSCN1655.JPG;615;photo;online;2004-07-07<br>20:27:35;"";"Gemporteerde afbeeldingen"\"Import (29/07/2004
<br>14:21:43)";"Plaatsen"\"USA"\"Amerika";"Plaatsen"\"USA"\"Chinatown";"Plaatsen"\"USA"\"San<br>Francisco";"Verzameling"\"VSA"
<br>--END EXTRACT--<br><br>Each line in the file represents one picture. It contains the filename and tag<br>information plus some, for me, irrelevant information.<br>Till the first semicolon: The path in Windows. Only the filename is relevant
<br>to me since all the pictures are in the same folder on my linux box. Note<br>that this is not the case on my windows-installation.<br>Than, the next relevant information starts just past the "import date".<br>
Everything past here is tag information. Each tag is seperated by a<br>semicolon. For example "Amerika" is a subtag from "USA", wich is a subtag<br>from "Plaatsen". This picture should get the tags Amerika, Chinatown, San
<br>Francisco and VSA.<br><br>I'll give some more extracts with some curiosities.<br><br>----><br>d:\documenten van peter\mijn<br>afbeeldingen\fotoapp\canon\IMG_4957.JPG;2342;photo;online;2005-03-30<br>15:40:30;"";"Gemporteerde afbeeldingen"\"Import (4/09/2005 17:03:34)";"Canon"
<br><----<br><br>Note the different folder this image was stored in. It should get the tag<br>Canon.<br><br>----><br>D:\Documenten van Peter\Mijn<br>afbeeldingen\fotoapp\DSCN3144.MOV;2533;video;online;2005-11-19<br>
13:41:56;"";"Gemporteerde afbeeldingen"\"Import (3/12/2005<br>17:27:48)";"Mensen"\"Familie"\"Sander";"Bezigheden"\"Paardrijden";"Filmpjes"\"Paardrijden -
<br>filmpjes"<br><----<br><br>Note that this is not a picture. This line doesn't have to be imported. But if<br>it was a picture it should get the tags Sander, Bezigheden and "Paardrijden -<br>filmpjes".
<br>The tag "Sander" has to be located in the 'super'tag "Familie" wich should be<br>in the 'super'tag "Mensen".<br><br>All my images are stored in /home/peter/Pictures/ now. So with no
<br>sub-directories.<br><br>I'm using version 0.8.2 of DigiKam on KDE 3.5.5 on openSuse10.2. I haven't<br>upgraded to the latest version because the suse packagers haven't put the<br>latest vesion in their update program. And I don't like to mess around with
<br>something that is already working great.</blockquote><div><br>But you mising something important. digiKam 0.9.1 can recreate automaticly the tags using the IPTC keywords embeded in images. I Photoshop album support IPTC, why not use it ?
<br><br>Can you send me in private some pictures to test here with my computer ?<br></div><br></div>Gilles Caulier<br>
