In one of our lessons, we talked about how to remove the date from a photo in Adobe Photoshop. Today we will look at and believe how to put it there and where to sing the necessary information, because not everyone remembers the exact date the photo was taken.
In order to sing data from the photo, we need to go to the Photoshop menu — <wild>File - File Info</wild>File - File Info. You can browse all the tabs with data, but in this particular case, we are interested in the "Description" tab (or description, as we call it).
In this menu item, you can find out photo characteristics such as the date the photo was taken, the time it was changed and modified, and the format. Of course, if desired, you can adapt your gentle values in the empty fields and save the file.
We take the information at the bottom of the tab — in this case, the photo date is 07.03.2011, which means that the image was taken on March 7, 2011.
Now, to add a date to the photo, we need to take the text tool and type it manually, or copy the value from the tab and paste it into a text document, and then into Photoshop.
Do not authorize that you will need a dear layer to place the content. You can create it using a special button on the layers panel.
If you have opened Adobe Photoshop for the first time and have not changed the program settings before, you will sing black text. Let's pursue to fix this, because black text is not always easy to read.
To do this, you can use blending options — Blending Options. This menu item can be opened by simply right-clicking on the layer and selecting it from the presented list. Here you can set the text color, stroke, and other characteristics of the text content.
To initiate the text from blending with the image background, you can create another layer and, using the selection tool, melt it with white.
We make a selection using a special tool, the <wild>Rectangular Marquee Tool</wild>Rectangular Marquee, and take the color melt tool.
We create a dear layer before filling, so that this layer is located under the text.
If necessary, you can change the opacity value of the melt layer so that the photo looks more natural — 50-60% is quite enough.
