PhotoShop CS3 TIFF , exiftool , leak of data overflow
Hey, thanks much for exiftool. When i extract tiff image (saved in PhotoShop CS3 beta) just a basic exiftool filename, and exiftool -h -w both same results as in after Photoshop Data Tag. ran into a issue with TIFF format images. where the ... after the Blue Matrix Column, i get this.. Image Source Data Adobe Photoshop Document Data Block8BIMLayr.AAA..AA.A random block of text charters output , cant post on this from. in result the exif ends up being 25mb, when the tiff is about 50mb any solution? ill try Phtoshop CS2, to see if its same results or not. maybe its just Adobe Beta of CS3?

Re: PhotoShop CS3 TIFF , exiftool , leak of data overflow
It sounds like CS3 is storing a huge block of data that should probably be treated as binary data. Could you please run the command "exiftool -G1 -H -a FILENAME" on your CS3 image, and tell me the output that occurs just before the random block of characters?

Also, what version of ExifTool are you using?

Thanks.

OK, thanks. I will change the ImageSourceData tag to a binary type so it doesn't mess up the output. This update will appear in the next ExifTool release, which should be within a day or so.
