Im trying to figure out how to export my tag information to text or even just my clip board so i can paste it as tags for searches later on like a cloud  
I would need album artist narrator publisher year asin (length if that can be done)  
Is this possible  
I normally type all this in i was hoping this can be done

Could you show us the corresponding extended tags dialogue so that it becomes clear which field contains which data?

I do not see the release date ...

Still, here is a suggestion - see if you can adapt it according to your needs:

```auto
$filename(%title%.txt,utf-8)
$loop(1)%_filename_ext%
By: %composer%
Narrated by: %artist%
Length: %_length%
Release date: %year%
Publisher: %publisher%$loopend()

```

You would have to create the export script first.  
Press Ctrl-E and then the New button and overwrite everything of the sample script with my suggestion.  
Save the script.  
Then call it directly or use the action.

The empty Publisher indicates that there is no field in that file.  
The $loop(1) keeps the order of the files as seen in the file list.  
The export script exports data for all the selected files.

somewhere as an extra line in the export script
