importing iptc caption of images

Permalink 1 user found helpful
I'm building a site with lots of photographs. They need to have captions added but I only want to do that once, for the master files in the database of my photo management programme, because I will be using the images for other purposes as well. So I want to add the data (title or caption, description) that are part of IPTC data set before exporting the files as jpegs for the web. And include the data to show up on the website as captions.

However, in the C5 galleries I have been checking it seems IPTC data are not imported and you have to type in that info for each image by hand. Or am I missing something?

It is a boring job to type in dozens of captions and even more boring if you have to do it twice :-) So any suggestions most welcome.
