As you import images, you can have Aperture automatically name and record
information about them. Aperture can assign filenames using custom naming
conventions, as well as record metadata such as captions, keywords, dates, copyright
and credit information, and IPTC information. You can even set Aperture to stack
related images together, keeping bracketed shots or a series of shots taken in quick
succession in groups that you can easily select and work with. For more information
about stacks, see Chapter 8, “
