HOW TO: output metadata as keywords

i cannot seem to do this, although it would seem like a natural task for AA to be able to complete.

the reason for this is because a web service only accepts keywords, not some other vital fields i need to get up.

thankyou

Setting keywords is one of

Setting keywords is one of the missing features in Aperture Assistant right now, mainly due to keywords being handled totally differently than other metadata within Aperture. Again, it's on the to-do list.
Once keyword changes is available as a feature, it should be possible to copy information from other tags into the keywords just before exporting, then remove them afterward. In the longer run I hope to add manipulation of files outside Aperture, which would allow you to add extra keywords to the exported file and not fiddle with keywords inside Aperture.
