Re: XMP coyright field -> IPTC copyright field
Thanks! - 1) I had thought you wanted a "droplet" to give you the drag-n-drop ability.

I would have preferred a droplet but got scared off by the apple script ;)

- 3) I don't see why you shouldn't be able to do the resize and save as JPEG without having to go through a BMP. You could also pipe the output directly to exiftool to remove all intermediate files (see the few last posts in this thread for an example.) You have installed "convert" on your Mac? You must be a power user... (ie. Unix background) :)

I just copied the script. The resizing is already done for me and I will not need that part. I haven't installed "convert". and wouldn't consider myself a power user although I have "dabbled" with Linux for a few years and have had a MacBook for 4 months now.

Under Windows I used Exiv2 quite happily but am trying to find a Mac solution. I know that there are ports but I really do not want to get into downloading all the tools, etc.

BTW, the ListExifData AppleScript that is the download section of your site doesn't show me the bottom of the screen when there is lots of data to display. It would need a scroll bar or something

I will carry on experimenting... Best wishes.
