Chapter 2 Importing Basics 33
Basic Concepts You Should Know
 Managed image: An image whose master resides in the Aperture library.
 Referenced image: An image whose master resides outside the Aperture library in
another disk location. Aperture simply refers to the file in its current location, and the
hard disk drive or media holding the file must be accessible for Aperture to make
adjustments to the image.
 Preset name format: A name format that you can create and save. You can then use it
to assign version names and master names to imported images. You can also use
preset name formats to assign names to exported files.
 Metadata: Data that describes information about an image and how it was collected
and formatted. Aperture can record and track many different types of metadata
commonly used by photographers to identify and track their images, including both
Exchangeable Image File (EXIF) and International Press Telecommunications Council
(IPTC) metadata. You can view and change metadata using the Metadata inspector.
