补习 (TUTORIAL)

Have you ever worried about sharing your images on the Internet? Anytime you upload something to the web you risk the chance of your work being used (without permission) by another.

您是否曾经担心过要在Internet上共享图像？ 每当您将某些内容上传到网络上时，都有可能被他人(未经许可)使用您的作品。

When you share information on the web, it’s best practice to give credit with a link to the original source. Taking credit for photography you didn’t shoot yourself or pay for (like stock photography) is plagiarism.

当您在网络上共享信息时，最好的做法是通过指向原始来源的链接来表示感谢。 以摄影而不是为自己开枪或不付钱(如摄影)为名是is窃。

As photographers and designers, we’re even more concerned with the copyright of our images. This is why it’s a good idea to develop the habit of adding metadata to our files. That way if an image is ever taken from your website, the copyright information will be embedded within the image.

作为摄影师和设计师，我们更加关注图片的版权。 这就是为什么养成在文件中添加元数据的习惯的好主意的原因。 这样，如果从您的网站上拍摄图像，则版权信息将被嵌入图像中。

You can get as detailed as you like with metadata. But I recommend starting with your name, website, and contact information.

您可以使用元数据获得尽可能详细的信息。 但我建议从您的姓名，网站和联系信息开始。

You’ll know you’ve done the following steps correctly when you see the © copyright symbol, as shown in the screenshot below.

当您看到©版权符号时，您将知道已经正确完成了以下步骤，如下面的屏幕快照所示。

什么是元数据？ (What is metadata?)

You may be wondering what metadata is and why it’s important. Maybe you’ve already heard of all the amazing benefits from adding metadata but haven’t tried adding it yourself or know where to begin.

您可能想知道什么是元数据以及为什么它很重要。 也许您已经听说过添加元数据可带来的所有惊人好处，但您并未尝试自己添加元数据或不知道从哪里开始。

Metadata is data that describes other data (sounds confusing, I know). It helps you organize and retrieve vital information on your image. It also makes the file searchable on the computer and/or the Internet.

元数据是描述其他数据的数据(我知道声音令人困惑)。 它可以帮助您组织和检索图像上的重要信息。 它还使文件可在计算机和/或Internet上搜索。

Metadata can be created manually or automated by a process (like the one I’ll show you below). A few examples of automated metadata are date created, date modified, and file size. These fields automatically populate themselves.

可以手动创建元数据，也可以通过流程自动创建元数据(例如下面将向您展示的元数据)。 自动元数据的一些示例包括创建 日期，修改日期和文件大小 。 这些字段会自动填充。

If you take a look at the metadata of a photograph you might be amazed by how much information is captured and stored. You can find out which camera created the file, exposure information, and descriptive information like keywords.

如果您查看照片的元数据，您可能会对捕获和存储多少信息感到惊讶。 您可以找出哪个相机创建了文件，曝光信息以及诸如关键字之类的描述性信息。

如何使用Photoshop操作添加版权信息 (How to add copyright information with Photoshop actions)

Before we get into the step-by-step tutorial on how to add copyright information to the metadata of your images, be sure to create a new Photoshop action so you only have to go through this process once. Once you press Play, the Photoshop action performs a series of pre-recorded steps.

在我们逐步学习如何将版权信息添加到图像的元数据的分步教程之前，请确保创建一个新的Photoshop操作，这样您只需执行一次此过程即可。 按下Play键后，Photoshop动作将执行一系列预先记录的步骤。

The purpose is to create a sequence that can be applied repeatedly, giving you the same results every time. We want to eliminate tedious, repetitive work by automating as much as possible. It’s time-consuming to add these steps to your editing workflow for every photo. Using a Photoshop action will cut down the time.

目的是创建可以重复应用的序列，每次都为您提供相同的结果。 我们希望通过尽可能地自动化来消除繁琐，重复的工作。 将这些步骤添加到每张照片的编辑工作流程中非常耗时。 使用Photoshop动作将减少时间。

If you’ve never created or used Photoshop actions before, don’t worry. I’ll go through it in step one. By the end of this tutorial, you’ll be glad you took the time to set up the workflow and look for more ways to use Photoshop actions to save time in the future!

如果您以前从未创建或使用过Photoshop操作，请不要担心。 我将在第一步中进行介绍。 在本教程结束时，您将很高兴花时间设置工作流程，并寻找更多使用Photoshop操作来节省时间的方法！

步骤1：创建一个新的Photoshop操作 (Step 1: Create a new Photoshop action)

After opening an image in Photoshop go to Window > Actions (from the toolbar menu). The actions tab will pop up on your screen. Click Create New Action to start a new workflow.

在Photoshop中打开图像后，转到“ 窗口”>“操作” (从工具栏菜单中)。 “操作”选项卡将在屏幕上弹出。 单击创建新操作以启动新的工作流程。

步骤2：命名您的Photoshop动作+记录 (Step 2: Name your Photoshop action + record)

Under Name enter a title for your new action. For this tutorial, I named my Photoshop action Copyright to remind me of its purpose.

在名称下，输入新动作的标题。 在本教程中，我将Photoshop动作命名为“ 版权”以提醒我其用途。

If you want to increase the automation process by a notch, assign a Function Key to trigger the action.

如果要增加一个档次，请分配一个功能键以触​​发该动作。

When you’re ready click the Record button to start recording.

准备就绪后，单击“ 录制”按钮开始录制。

Tip: Anything you do from this point on within Photoshop will be recorded in the action. It’s important to only perform the required steps for this workflow. The point of a Photoshop action is to create a workflow that can work on any image without interruption.

提示：从现在开始，您在Photoshop中所做的任何操作都将记录在操作中。 仅执行此工作流程所需的步骤很重要。 Photoshop操作的重点是创建一个可以处理任何图像而不会中断的工作流。

步骤3：打开文件信息 (Step 3: Open File Info)

Next, go to File > File Info. All the fields in the dialog box should be blank since this is a new document. Take a minute to explore all the options.

接下来，转到文件>文件信息 。 对话框中的所有字段均应为空白，因为这是一个新文档。 花一点时间探索所有选项。

步骤4：添加您的信息 (Step 4: Add your information)

Under the Basic tab fill in your name or company name under Author. Change the Copyright Status to Copyrighted, add a copyright notice, and insert the Copyright Info URL. Take a look at the example below to see how to personalize with your information.

在基本选项卡下，在作者下填写您的姓名或公司名称。 将版权状态更改为版权 ，添加版权声明，然后插入版权信息URL 。 请看以下示例，了解如何个性化您的信息。

Tip: To add a © copyright symbol on a Mac press the “alt” or “option” key while typing “g” on the keyboard. To add a © copyright symbol on a PC press the “alt” key while typing “0169” on the keyboard.

提示：要在Mac上添加©版权符号，请在键盘上键入“ g”的同时按“ alt”或“ option”键。 要在PC上添加©版权符号，请在键盘上键入“ 0169”的同时按“ alt”键。

Notice the Creation Date, Modification Date, Application, and Format. These are examples of automated metadata we mentioned earlier. You can’t modify these fields.

注意创建日期 ， 修改日期 ， 应用程序和格式 。 这些是我们前面提到的自动元数据的示例。 您不能修改这些字段。

Next, choose the IPTC tab. You’ll notice the Creator field populated itself with the same information you added in the Author field in the previous tab.

接下来，选择IPTC选项卡 。 您会注意到在Creator字段中填充的信息与您在上一个选项卡的Author字段中添加的信息相同。

You can get as detailed as you like by adding information into the fields. If you’re a photographer and want others to know the location of your business you can add a business address.

通过将信息添加到字段中，可以根据需要获得尽可能详细的信息。 如果您是摄影师，并且希望其他人知道您的公司所在地，则可以添加公司地址。

The most important pieces of information you’ll want to add are your email address and website URL (if you have one). That way if someone finds your photo online and falls in love with it, they can contact you and possibly hire you if they’re interested!

您要添加的最重要的信息是您的电子邮件地址和网站URL(如果有的话)。 这样，如果有人在网上找到您的照片并爱上了它，他们可以联系您，如果有兴趣可以雇用您！

步骤5：添加权利使用条款 (Step 5: Add rights usage terms)

If you scroll down to the bottom of the IPTC tab you’ll notice the Copyright Notice also populated itself from the information you entered in the Description tab. Under Rights Usage Terms, add All Rights Reserved.

如果向下滚动到IPTC选项卡的底部，您会注意到版权说明也从您在“ 描述”选项卡中输入的信息中自动填充。 在“ 权利使用条款”下 ，添加“保留所有权利” 。

You may want to skim through the other tabs within this dialog to familiarize yourself with what’s available. Feel free to be as detailed or brief as you like. But for the purpose of this tutorial, we’re only adding copyright information.

您可能需要浏览此对话框中的其他选项卡，以熟悉可用功能。 随心所欲地详尽或简短。 但是出于本教程的目的，我们仅添加版权信息。

Once you’re done adding your information to the fields click OK. Then click Stop on your Photoshop action tab and you’re done!

完成将信息添加到字段中后，点击OK 。 然后在Photoshop动作选项卡上单击“ 停止” ，就完成了！

单击播放并测试您的Photoshop操作 (Click Play and test your Photoshop action)

Now that you’ve gone through this process once and created a Photoshop action, you’ll never have to do it again. The next time you open a new photo in Photoshop and click Play on the action, it’ll automatically run through the workflow process.

现在，您已经完成了此过程并创建了一个Photoshop动作，那么您将不必再做一次。 下次您在Photoshop中打开新照片并在操作上单击“ 播放 ”时，它将自动在工作流程中运行。

It’s a good idea to test your new Photoshop action a few times with other images to make sure everything runs smoothly. Open a new photo, click Play or use the assigned function key if you specified one. Now you can quickly and easily add copyright information to the metadata of all your images with a click of a button!

最好与其他图像一起测试您的新Photoshop动作几次，以确保一切顺利进行。 打开新照片，单击播放，或使用指定的功能键(如果已指定)。 现在，您只需单击一个按钮，即可快速轻松地将版权信息添加到所有图像的元数据中！
