Cataloging Pictures
Pictures can be cataloged for later retrieval using the Search tool.
Keywords and classifications are used to catalog pictures.
Keywords are words or phrases that you create to identify pictures.
Keywords that are common to a group of pictures can be entered during
the import process. Keywords for individual pictures can be viewed and
edited on a picture’s Catalog Properties sheet.
1. Classifications are pre-existing labels that are used to identify people,
places, events, and things. The classification hierarchy provided by Photo
Organizer should be sufficient to label most of your pictures. However,
you can add new classifications if necessary.
Classifications are assigned using a picture’s Classification Properties
sheet.
