I have exported a tif file from Darktable:

Then I opened it in Gimp2.10 and exported it to a jpg, png and renamed tif 
file. In all those cases (exported by Gimp) the exif-information looked like 
this:

As you can see, most of the information in the original file was lost.

This is a serious problem for me if I want to use Gimp in my
postprosessing of photographs.

Whoops, managed to reply to Johann instead of to the list, and then
I got the list address wrong.  Not a good day, but lemme give it
another try before I sack myself.

That does not match my current experience with 2.10.0 - I have just
opened a raw image as 16-bit in Gimp (using nufraw), straightened it up
and sharpened it, then exported as png (16-bit) and tiff (seems to
be 32-bit).

I than used exiftool -a on each, with similar results.  Some of the
output from the tiff file:

So it has the EXIF data, and also a 256x193 thumbnail.

I take both - for what I'm doing, the jpeg usually gives me a quick
look on a computer where I can say "has possibilities | meh"

Documentation is either free, and can be updated, or it is chained
down in immutable form and may be out of date.

I do not want to use ExifTool in this case.  My problem is that I open
an image with a lot of exif-information in Gimp and when Gimp exports
it, those information is lost.  How can I prevent Gimp from doing it?

I do not take photos in jpeg.  Work with raw mostly with Darktable but
there are time when I want to edit a photo in Gimp.

It seems that the information about Gimp not giving back the
Exif-information has not changed that much in 12 year... :(

I've edited EXIF information in a png created from gimp-2.{8,9}
after importing from {,n}ufraw, using Image::ExifTool in a bash script
to add and remove fields.  I remove fields because what I put online
is typically reduced to 2048 pixels maximum dimension, so
information from the camera quoting an original image size will be
at best misleading.

And I assume that I can still do this in 2.10, but since it is
something I do as the last stage of processing I have not had
occassion to try it.  To be more specific: gimp creates some, maybe
all, fields, but what I want is to 'publish' only a few, and to add
e.g. title and license.  My current process re-reads EXIF data from
the camera's own jpeg.

Not sure platform you are working on, but perhaps you can do
something similar.  And in general things change over 12 years!
Even the size of files you can upload to flickr.

[Gimp-user] Gimp 2.10 and exif-information

2018-05-11 Thread Johann Spies
I have read on a 12-year old flickr discussion that Gimp does not save
exif information in other formats than XCF and jpeg.

I just experimented with Darktable exporting an image to Gimp2.10 which pass
it back to Darktable using png and tiff(32bit) formats and in both cases
the exif-information of the image edited in Gimp was missing.  Is there
a way to do this exchange in tif (which I prefer) and keep the
exif-information?
