Note that altering RAW files is generally a very bad idea. Almost all
formats (and definitely NEF) are based on TIFF which uses absolute
offsets everywhere. That means that if you change the length of a
field somewhere you may very well break the file completely. It may
work in this case if the format actually has a fixed length field for
this but I wouldn't bother.

What's the use case for putting name and phone number in raw files anyway?

Cheers,

Pedro
