I’ve been thinking of Informator Pro as it works right through the Finder of Mas OS X but their product isn’t Tiger ready yet and the trial downloads don’t work. GRRRR!! Painful and discouraging!
What is IPTC?
IPTC was established in 1965 by a group of news organisations including the Alliance Europ�enne des Agences de Presse, ANPA (now NAA), FIEJ (now WAN) and the North American News Agencies (a joint committee of Associated Press, Canadian Press and United Press International) to safeguard the telecommunications interests of the World’s Press.
Since the late 1970’s IPTC’s activities have primarily focussed on developing and publishing Industry Standards for the interchange of news data.

Seems like such a no-brainer thing, but no.
I’ve been stymed in my search for a good IPTC editor. I use photo mechanic most of the time but I can’t control wether it writes the caption info in the IPTC space or the EXIF space, which messes up my gallery because it will only displace the IPTC info. grrr

It’s been a month and I’m still stuck. I eventually had to go to using text files as a temporary alternative.
The first person that makes a comprehensive IPTC editor will be a millionaire.
I use Graphic Converter (http://www.lemkesoft.com) for several years now. Quite good for the price (+-30 dollars).
