Xara Webster - Adding Titles, Descriptions and Keywords to Documents

You can add a title, description and keywords to a document. If the file is then added to the Clipart Gallery this information will be used during searches and for displaying the document in the gallery.

To add titles, descriptions and keywords to documents

You enter the information in the Comment field of the Document Info dialog box. The first line of the Comment field is taken as a description of the file, unless it starts 'KEY:' or 'TITLE:' in which case the item is assumed not to have a description.

If a line starts with 'TITLE:' the rest of the line is taken as the title for the drawing. If a line starts with 'KEY:' the rest of the line is taken as a list of keywords separated by commas or vertical bars ('|'). For example, a picture of a dog might contain the following information in the Comments section of the Document info dialog box (<ENTER> is where the user would have pressed <ENTER>):

A large great dane<ENTER>
KEY:Dog,Large,Animal,Mammal<ENTER>
TITLE:Great dane

Note

  • Comments will only be added to the indexes when creating or updating them, and only .xar & .web files will be checked for these comments.
