--- Comment #22 from Bawolff (Brian Wolff) <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #21) > I just had a similar request from a museum who are planning a large image > donation where they had spent a significant effort making sure that the > metadata was also included in the exif tags. > > For generating their own thumbnails they use a script which first generates > the > jpg thumbnail with imagemagick and then calls ExifTool to copy the exif data > across with > exiftool –all= -tagsfromfile SOURCE.TIF –all:all –overwrite_original > TARGET.JPG > > Would something similar be doable here? We might not want to copy all of the > fields (or for all sizes of thumbnails) but the ones mentioned above would be > good. post processing with either exiftool or exiv2 is a potential solution to this bug (And probably the best way forward. I don't think we want to write our own metadata writer). Would require making sure such a program is available on the server (which might already be the case). ImageMagick also has -caption and -title options we can use without resorting to using another binary. It should probably be investigated what sort of metadata these options produce in the image (The docs are very vague, but testing that should be easy). -label Should also be investigated. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
