Importing and Managing Photos

Bridge makes importing images a snap, and it can perform all kinds of wonderful housekeeping chores, too. For example, it can automatically rename photos and add keywords, descriptions, and copyright info to each file. You can also have it back up your photos (either to an external hard drive or to another spot on your internal hard drive) while importing them from your digital camera or memory card.

To import images, make sure your card reader is attached to your computer (see the box on Tips for Importing Photos), and then choose File→“Get Photos from Camera” or click the tiny camera icon near the top left of the Bridge window. Either way, Bridge opens the Photo Downloader in Standard mode, which isn’t very impressive; its most redeeming feature is its Advanced Dialog button; click it to switch to Advanced mode, shown in Figure 22-2. (If this is the first time you’ve downloaded photos with Bridge on a Mac, you’ll see the dialog box mentioned in the Tip on Tip.)
