In the project I am currently working on I don't
often have the information I would put into the
"File Info" area when I make the scan and before
I burn a cd... only after I send the image down
to another island and get my source to hopefully
give me information would I have much to put in
besides the image number - which is the title of
the file anyway. But on other projects I have
used "File Info"
