Working with XMP files

XMP files are metadata sidecar files that accompany RAW files. They are a standard way of saving edits without changing the original RAW file. If you plan to use another RAW image-editor with your files, XMP files will let you work between the applications more easily. You can read, save, copy, and paste XMP metadata for your RAW files.

To read and import metadata in XMP files

•

In the Manage workspace, right-click one or more RAW photo thumbnails, and choose RAW Metadata > Read Metadata from File.

To save edits to XMP files

•

In the Manage workspace, right-click one or more RAW photo thumbnails, and choose RAW Metadata > Save Metadata To File.

To copy and paste metadata between XMP files

1

In the Manage workspace, right-click the thumbnail of the RAW image that has the metadata that you want to copy.

2

Choose RAW Metadata > Copy.

3

Select one or more RAW photo thumbnails to which you want to apply the metadata.

4

Right-click the selected thumbnails and choose RAW Metadata > Paste.
