Crediting copyright on photographs
I need to include the copyright acknowledgement / photographer credit on an image but I'm not sure what's the best way to do it. Option 1: I can add the acknowledgement to the end of the \placefigure caption text: e.g. \placefigure{A picture of a cow. Image of a cow that may or may not be under copyright anymore.}{\externalfigure[cow][height=6cm]} then the copyright bit will appear in the Table of Figures which I don't really want to happen. Is there a way to truncate this? Option 2: some magazines print the copyright credit running up the side of the image, independently of the caption. I'd quite like to do this and wondered if anyone had already written something they could share? — Bruce Horrocks Hampshire, UK
Hi Bruce, The Layers page has some examples ( https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Layers#Place_labels_on_pictures) and the Collectors page as well (https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Collectors). Some MWE: \starttext \definelayer [figure][width=\overlaywidth,height=\overlayheight] \defineoverlay[figure][{\directsetup{figure}\tightlayer[figure]}] \startsetups figure \setlayerframed[figure][frame=off,preset=rightbottom]{\copyright\ 2022} \stopsetups \externalfigure[cow][background={foreground,figure}] \stoptext \starttext \definecollector[example] \setcollector [example] {\externalfigure[cow][width=4cm,frame=off]} \setcollector [example] [corner={right,bottom},location={left,top}]{\copyright\ 2022} \composedcollector{example} \stoptext Adam On Wed, May 4, 2022 at 11:01 PM Bruce Horrocks via ntg-context < ntg-context@ntg.nl> wrote:

Using \startplacefigure[title={complete caption}, list={description in the table of figures}]...\stopplacefigure you can have different caption texts, like for titles.

I often use \ininner{\rotate[location=fit]{Copyright notice}}, but it’s a hassle to get the placement right, don’t use it within the caption. Using \setlayer is most reliable. Hraban
Bruce,
I tend to do something such as the following:
\startplacefigure[reference={fig:0007},location={here},title={{\it
Vīkṣya}, 5b},list={Ch.\ {\sc ix}\TI {\it Vīkṣya}, 5b}]
\externalfigure[plates/01-09/01-09-07-
c.jpg][scale=1000,frame=off,equalwidth=325pt]
{{\NI}{\tfx \copyright\ 2012 Sylvain {\sc Brocquet}.}}
\stopplacefigure
You can find the result in v. 1, p. 257:

Thank-you Adam, Hraban and Richard for your suggestions. In the end it was remarkably simple: \starttext \definecollector[example] \setcollector [example] {\externalfigure[cow][width=6cm,frame=off]} \setcollector [example] [corner={right,bottom},location={right,top}] {\rotate[rotation=90]{\copyright A great artist}} \placefigure [ ] [fig:cow] {A fine figure of a cow} {\composedcollector{example}} \stoptext In the above the cow is drawn with the figure caption below as normal and with the copyright text running upwards along the edge of the right-hand edge of the image. And if you want to fine tune the space between the image and the text then it's easy to \framed the text and play around with the size and offsets. — Bruce Horrocks Hampshire, UK
