About MSP
MetaShotPpt was created using a 2012 Visual Resources Association Foundation (http://www.vrafoundation.org/) Project Grant awarded to Greg Reser and Heidi Eyestone, members of the VRA Data Standards Committee, Embedded Metadata working group. Chris Becerra was the software programmer.
What is MetaShotPpt?
MetaShotPpt is an embedded metadata/image importer for PowerPoint 2010 for PC. MetaShotPpt takes a folder of image files and imports them into a PowerPoint presentation. Each image is placed in a single slide and if the file has embedded metadata, the metadata is imported into the speaker notes. MSP is designed to streamline the creation of PowerPoint presentations for image users.
