Hello!

A solution outside of darktable -

On Linux and on the commandline, with exiftools installed, the following bash script writes selected (EXIF-)info in a black bar on the lower end of the fotos (here: jpgs) of a directory and saves it under a suffix in the filename:

Not completly ready for your purpose, it does more than you need, but might give you an idea and come in handy... I use it for a project of mine, too...

for filename in *.jpg; do
[ -e "$filename" ] || continue
fnumber=$(exiftool -aperture $filename | cut -d':' -f2)
exposure=$(exiftool -shutterspeed $filename | cut -d':' -f2)
iso=$(exiftool -iso $filename | cut -d':' -f2)
focal=$(exiftool -FocalLength $filename |cut -d':' -f2)

convert $filename -gravity South -background Black -pointsize 75 -fill White \ -splice 0x90 -annotate 0x0 "Aperture:$fnumber | Shutter speed:$exposure | Focal Lenght:$focal | ISO:$iso | File:$1" Annotated_$filename
done

I think I found this in the book "

Linux Photography, Tools for Automated and Streamlined Photographic Workflow on Linux" by Dmitri Popov

and adopted it for my needs...

HTH,

Albin

I am going to 'rough' print about 50 images as a preview to printing a book. They will be used for the final selection and also for placement and ordering.

I am looking for a way to print a file identification on each piece ... such as the file name but I do not see anything in the print-manager or in the script-manager that would be of service.

What are others doing in this respect?
