Is there a way to put a date/timestmap on JPEG files with PIL? My digicam
can generate a data file with all sorts of stats on each picture. I'd like
to be able to take that file, parse it, and batch iterate through each
picture placing certain pieces of data in the bottom right corner of the
picture (like you see on lots of 35mm/camcorder footage). Any advise on
doing this with PIL would be appreciated. I also have access to gimp should
I need to create the text on the fly to be layered in.

TIA,
D
