You can check exported images in Finder - Command I (File>get info). In my quick test on Monterey it does show accented characters in Title and Description, which where entered dt. Gimp does show them as well. macOS is the default US English install, no International settings. -- Šarūnas Burdulis math.dartmouth.edu/~sarunas · https://useplaintext.email · OpenPGP_signature Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Re: [darktable-user] Export xmp metadata with correct lang
You are right, Patrick, the manual has grown into a really fine tool. That's where I started in the first place. But I'm sorry, but to include iptc tags doesn't seem to have any effect on the xmp tags. I do get xmp.dc.title and xmp.dc.description, but gimp shows an empty string whenever there is a special character within. I'm not sure if it is a gimp problem, but I cannot find the trick to tell it to use utf-8 with metadata. I hope that dt exports them as utf-8. By the way, I cannot set formulas to manually inserted iptc metadata any more. They are accepted to be saved, but they are not executed and don't show, when I reopen the preferences, even "=" is lost. I use dt 4.0.1 on macos Monterey 12.6. My gimp is 2.10.22. To improve my workflow I need gimp with these metadata. To abstain from special characters would be a somewhat ugly solution.

[darktable-user] Export xmp metadata with correct lang
I want to export my images from dt as jpeg containing xmp metadata, especially Title and Description, e.g. 'Arcen' as Matadata.Title. If I open these files with gimp I find the contents of Xmp.dc.title as 'lang="x-default" Arcen'. I am German, and I want to use umlauts, too. So my Metadata.Title should be 'Arcen. Schlossgärten'. But in this case the exported Xmp.dc.title remains empty. How can I set the correct lang for the export from dt?
