ImageFolio Batch IPTC Plug-In Released!

http://imagefolio.com/products/batchiptc/

ImageFolio’s Batch IPTC Plug-In adds batch IPTC editing (also known as metadata, keywording, tagging, captioning, etc.) functionality to ImageFolio Pro 4.x or ImageFolio Commerce 4.x.

With the base version of a product you can only add keywords and captions to one file at a time. With The Batch IPTC Plug-In, you and your users (if permitted) can batch IPTC edit your keywords, captions, and 42 other fields of data to thousands of files at a time.

Adminstrators and users (with permission) will be able to quickly add batch IPTC edit assets by:

Category – apply Batch IPTC to all assets in any category
Lightbox – apply Batch IPTC to all assets in any lightbox

What is IPTC?

IPTC data is a method of storing textual information in images. It was developed for press photographers who need to attach information to images when they are submitting them electronically but it is useful for all photographers. It provides a standard way of storing information such as captions, keywords, location and captions. Because the information is stored in the image in a standard way this information can be accessed by other IPTC aware applications. ImageFolio supports the IPTC standard. However, with ImageFolio you can now add IPTC to non-image files because of the way in which ImageFolio generates icons as thumbnails for non-image filetypes.

Questions
Will this resave my JPEG images causing loss to the quality of the images?
