Displaying and editing photo information

The Info palette in the Manage workspace lets you view, add, and edit information about your photos, such as filename, size, and creation date, as well as EXIF and IPTC metadata. You can also add tags and captions, and apply star ratings to photos. Adding and updating photo information makes it easier to organize and search for your photos. For example, you can search by caption text.
