Question

Adding GPS data to a Photoshop file

Using Photoshop or Bridge, is there a way to manually add GPS data to a photo that did not capture the GPS data when the photo was originally taken? I am using a Nikon camera, not an iPhone.

I know about the File Info command, but the GPS fields under File Info don't seem to be editable.

Hi, In Adobe Bridge you can go to the metadata panel and sear for the GPS option

    Eugenio, Thank you so much for responding!

    When I try to enter the latitude and longitude I get this error message;

    I tried entering the latitue in this format: 41°24'12.2"N 

    And also in this format: 37.327710

    Bridge refused to take the degree minutes seconds format and the decimal format.

    What should the format look like that Bridge will accept?

    Is there a conversion utility that can convert my numbers so that Bridge will accept them?

    "What should the format look like "

     

    You are not using the format it's asking for, such as the comma after the dd. The format has to look like the ones in their examples.

     

    I found this blog that may help you convert to Bridge's non-standard format:
