Adding summary information

Specific audio file types allow you to store text fields of summary information in addition to the audio and video data. File types offering
this feature include WAV, AVI, ASF, and RealMedia™ file formats. You can view and edit these text fields.

Viewing and editing summary information

The Summary window is used to view and edit the summary information stored in the file.
1.
From the View menu, choose Metadata, and then choose Summary Information from the submenu. The Summary window
appears.
2.
Edit the summary information as needed. You can insert additional summary information by right-clicking in the Summary window
and choosing additional summary fields from the Insert submenu.

Saving summary information

You can save files containing summary information that have been edited in Sound Forge software with or without summary
information.
1.
From the File menu, choose Save As. The Save As dialog appears.
2.
Select the Save metadata with file check box and click OK.
Note:
If you save to a file type that doesn't support metadata, this check box is unavailable.

Including additional embedded information

Some file formats allow non-text data (such as embedded bitmaps and metafiles) to be embedded in files. If you use the Sound Forge
software to edit a file containing data created in another application, Sound Forge software tracks the embedded data and places it
back in the file when it is saved in its original format.
Saving additional embedded information
To save additional embedded information, choose Save As from the File menu and select the Save metadata with file check box. If the
file type does not support metadata, you are prompted to save the metadata in an external file with an .sfl extension.
