Export captions script
This script exports the captions from all images found in a directory and all its subdirectories in a tab-seperated text file.
How to use it:
Install exiftool, as described here: Exiftool
Download the file ExportCaptions.bat_txt from the attachements below in this page to wherever you want to put it (alongside exiftool seems like a logical approach)
Rename the file so the extension is only .bat instead of .bat_txt (uploading .bat files isn't allowed on sites.google.com)
Right-click on the .bat file and choose "Edit"
Change the paths you want to change as explained here:
Content of the .bat file:
"C:\Programs\Exiftool\exiftool.exe" -recurse -table -directory -filename -xmp:description "C:\temp\ExtractCaptions" > "C:\temp\ExtractedCaptions.txt"
Things you can change:
- "C:\Programs\Exiftool\exiftool.exe": is the filepath where exiftool.exe is located, if you put it somewhere else, change this accordingly
- "C:\temp\ExtractCaptions": the directory where your images are located, if your images are somewhere else, change this accordingly
- "C:\temp\ExtractedCaptions.txt": the filepath where the tab separated file with the metadata will be placed
Doubleclick the .bat file
