Tagging Photos After Import in Adobe Photoshop Elements
Adobe Photoshop Elements supports the most sophisticated tagging of the three programs in this article. Photoshop Elements calls its tags “keyword tags” and includes the following categories: People, Places, Events, Other, and Imported Tags (used for tags originally created in a different program such as Windows Live Photo Gallery or others).
Within each category, you can create specific tags. To get started, click the green plus (+) sign and select New Keyword Tag (Figure 12).
