Correct answer Lumigraphics

Bridge reads whatever is already there. If you have keywords in your files, Bridge will see them.

I recommend looking over the Adobe Help pages, they have great information.

More info please. Are you talking about a list of keywords in Lightroom? You can export a text file of Lightroom keywords.

Keywords are attached to the series of photos in the Lightroom, I want the same Keywords to "work" in Bridge.
Let's say I need to find photos that have the keyword "xx" in the Lightroom, in different catalogs. It's easier to do this in a Bridge, but how to transfer all this data so that they are linked to your photos?

Are the keywords written to the metadata of the image files?

As Lumigraphics mentioned, you can export out the list of keywords from Lr and import into Ps, that way you can apply the same keywords... But if you are only interested in find photos with keywords, then you need to have Lr setup to actually write the keywords to the image files and not just to the internal catalogue database.

"Note: There is no need to create an XML file, Bridge will create the correct XML data when importing the plain text file (this is also the key for sharing keywords between Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Bridge, as both applications use different XML structures for their native keywords database)."
