I have quite a lot of photos, some of which are over 100 years old. I scanned them into my Windows 10 computer over the years. None of them have the date as part of the photo so I would like to add a date to them. I've come up with some general steps but have not tried it yet. Would something like this work?
Open PS and add a text layer.
Add a photo to the file.
Save the file.
Reopen the file and change the photo to another one.
Change the Date text if necessary.
Etc.
BTW I'm using Photoshop 7, an app that I used at my job for over 15 years. Not having any programming experience, and having nothing but time since I'm retired, I would appreciate any comments

[QUOTE="Skeezix, post: 1533844403, member: 139744"] I have quite a lot of photos, some of which are over 100 years old. I scanned them into my Windows 10 computer over the years. None of them have the date as part of the photo so I would like to add a date to them. I've come up with some general steps but have not tried it yet. Would something like this work?

Verification: What is our favorite program/app? (Hint - it begins and ends with the letter P)
