Kalimages v2 - Help and Installation
=======================================

Kalimages software was designed and developped by Soft Experience to rapidly create an IPTC searchable photo database 
from your image folders: add, edit IPTC information, describe each picture or mass update using templates. 
Adding descriptions, keywords and other photo information makes it easy to index and locate images on your folders. 
Browse photographs as thumbnails, create selections to replicate to output folders, tag pictures with relevant 
classification information, export IPTC texts into HTML or XML formats, quickly prepare photos for publishing, display a slideshow.

Kalimages full retail version integrates an IPTC editor to enrich photos descriptions, manipulate IPTC information, 
create and apply IPTC templates, make selections for browsing, update embedded  metadata on several photos at once. 
You can edit IPTC-IMM standard fields and 16 additional non standards fields for specific classification purposes.

The great thing for photographers and metadata managers is that you can add keywords according controlled vocabularies.
Kalimages supports Library of Congress Thesaurus for Graphic Materials I & II for subject headings terms, 
But also customized controlled vocabularies (with hierarchy and synonyms), slideshows, send images via email. 


You always have up-to-date detailed features on product page: 
http://www.Kalimages.com in English and on http://www.Kalimages.net in French. Spanish and Portuguese language page also available.

At any moment you can switch Kalimages software interface language to English, French, German or any available language.
