Re: [Gimp-user] Questions about EXIF data (Windows version)
Von: perkin-warbeck for...@gimpusers.com I'm sending tiff files to GIMP (version 2.6.7 for Windows) from a raw converter. The tiff files contain a lot of EXIF data such as Fnumber, FocalLength, ExposureTime, ISO. and so-on. When I save as jpeg from GIMP, most of the EXIF data is discarded. In the Save as JPEG dialog, the checkbox Save EXIF data (under Advaned Options is unchecked. It is grayed out so I cannot check it. The Exif data is discarded when opening the TIFF files. So far, only the JPEG plug-in reads and saves Exif data from and to image files. Here are my questions: (1) Is the Windows version of GIMP packaged with libexif? Yes. (2) If not, is there a workaround? A workaround is to use a different tool - e.g. exiftool - to extract the Exif data from the original files and add it back to the resulting files. A fix would be to add Exif support to more file format plug-ins (e.g. TIFF, PNG and possibly others). Regards, Michael -- Schon gehört?

Thank you, Michael. You solved my problem. I was able to import EXIF data using ExifTool. -- perkin-warbeck (via gimpusers.com) ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

In Chapter 6 of the GIMP manual, it says Although GIMP uses the “libexif” library to read and write EXIF data, the library is not automatically packaged with GIMP. If GIMP was built with libexif support, then EXIF data is preserved Here are my questions: (1) Is the Windows version of GIMP packaged with libexif?
