Copyright Notices >

You can label your photographs with your copyright notice in the metadata.

You can also place a copyright notice watermark on the photograph itself using two methods.

Go to Copyright for information about copyright registration and other copyright topics, and go to Protect Your Photographs.

You can add a copyright notice, and contact information, to the metadata file that accompanies your photographs.

This metadata file is also called the EXIF file or the Exchangeable Image File.

The copyright notice will not be visible on the photograph.

However, if someone checks the metadata for your photograph, they'll see the copyright notice and your contact information.

The metadata can be changed and removed from a photograph.

The next section describes how to make a copyright notice watermark.
