Hello group,

I am having a problem with the description field in the XMP/IPTC dialogue.

We have a number of Hasselblad H2D39s and for some reson the Hasselblad software insists on placeing the string *temp* into the description fields. We have been using BB for some time and most (all?) of our installations are now the latest version of BBPro.

Problem 1. descriptions entered with older versions of BB only updates the IIM(?) field leaving the XMP field with *temp*

Problem 2. descriptions entered with newer versions of BBPro only updates the XMP field leaving the IIM(?) field with *temp*

Problem 3. Some images appear to have correct captions in both the XMP and IIM field but Extensis Portfolio is still extracting *temp* from somewhere else. I have searched through all the PS file info but cannot find where this is stored.

Ideal solution if possible. latest version of BBPro writes entered description to ALL possible areas.

Is this possible?

Thanks,
