Is there an easy way to inject metadata into multiple files?

Postby apcrcom » Thu Sep 08, 2011 10:42 am

I have a bunch of files I want to put metadata into. I cant see an 'import' option, so am assuming this needs to be typed separately into each document, which will take a lot of time to do (20 files). Can anyone adevise if there is a quicker method to do this?

I assume it would be possible to write a script, and/or possibly do it via command line. But unfortunately I couldn't tell you how. I think there was another recent topic about this. If I recall, they used "object properties" in either the title or text of the message, if you want to search. I don't remember if they received any helpful reply.

Or someone else may have a quick answer for you? :D
