ABSTRACT
This chapter is written for people who need to annotate their photomicrographs in a manner that binds descriptive data to the image, so that 1. Collections of photomicrographs can be searched based on their descriptive
content, or by their image content, or both. 2. Individual images can be sent to colleagues, and the person who receives
the image can extract, from the image file, descriptive text that the sender included with the image.
