Hello

I have been recommended to have more than just one catalog for all my fotos, so I tried to make a second one with older pictures. I culdn't find a solution to Import the whole tags, as they appear in my first catalog. Is there a possibility to have them imported or do I have to make the  whole thing a second time?

I don't mean to import tags on photos, the imported pictures don't have any tags, but I want  to give them the same names as for examples persons have in the other catalog.

Having several catalogs is a very bad idea, unless they are for totally distinct purposes.

- it does not make managing faster

- It's very difficult to merge or split catalogs.

- It makes managing backups problematic.

So, why do you think it would help you?

A couple of years ago I have read somewhere that it would makes work faster with less photos. I'm not a very frequent user of Photoshop and would love to have only one catalog.
