Lightroom problem.

I have Lightroom 1.0 with WindowsXP prof.

I have many digital photos which I have
annotated in the EXIF "comments" field via
Exifer.

But Lightroom does not show this "comments"
field in its EXIF list on the right-hand side
of the screen.

Also, in Lightroom there is no way to put a
comment as a watermark across the very bottom
of an exported file, though I can do this
with the "watermark" field in Lightroom's
EXIF list. But this would mean a lot of
double handling!

I ask:

1/ How can I get Lightroom to display *ALL*
of the EXIF list, or at least the ones that I
choose?

2/ How can I get to put any, or many, of the
EXIF fields across the bottom of an image
when I export it?

Are there suitable plug-ins available?

Please help.

LR has no plugins, nor a plugin architecture.

You'd be wise to post on the Adobe forum if you don't get answers soon.
