Tips for Creating High-Quality Watermarks Use the following guidelines to create high-quality watermarks for your images: Â Save your watermark as a .psd (Photoshop) file with a transparent background. Â Create multiple sizes of your watermark so that you can select the one that is the best match for the output size of the exported image. Note: If a watermark file is larger than the image you want to export, Aperture automatically scales the watermark down to fit the image. (Aperture does not scale watermarks up.) Â After you create a watermark, save it as part of an export preset so you can reuse it as often as you need. Applying IPTC Metadata and Keywords to Your Images Many publications use a standard set of image keywords; the American Newspaper Publishers Association (ANPA) wire codes, developed by the Newspaper Association of America, are one example. You can apply these keywords to your images when exporting to JPEG, TIFF, and PSD file formats. Remember that applying metadata at export applies all the metadata attached to your image. If your image version has metadata that you don't want exported, create an image version that includes only the metadata intended for export. Note: The PNG file format does not support the inclusion of metadata. To include metadata with images at export: 1 Select the image or images you want to export. 2 Choose File > Export > Versions (or press Command-Shift-E). 3 Navigate to the location where you want the exported images placed. 4 Choose Edit from the Export Preset pop-up menu. 5 In the Export Presets dialog, select the export preset you want to use to export your images. 6 Select the Include Metadata checkbox. 7 Click OK. 8 Choose a name format for your exported files from the Name Format pop-up menu. 9 Click Export Versions. The metadata is included in your exported images. 502 Part IV Distribution and Backup
