i refer to the example at the homepage:

What do I need the hold keywords together, e.g.: _"Phil's Exif" Tool_ and not _Exif Phil's Tool_. I doesn't work with

Sorry Phil, I didnt realize that there is a difference between EXIF and IPTC, when I posted the example. There is another example

The example is from a commandline now. XPKeywords always stores the last keyword with my syntax. Maybe I have a quoting problem with my bash-script too. I will check it, after I know, what I did wrong with the XP Keywords. I would also like to mention, that I would like to import the keywords as tags to flickr. Is another syntax possible to create multiple keywords? I create a keyword list with sed and can put any delimiter in the text string. It doesn't work with flickr to write all keywords like

I tried also other variations as delimiter like a blank. It is ok with flickr only if I use -IPTC:Keywords=... -IPTC:Keywords=... The command is stored in a variable of the bash-script and I execute it without quotes, eg. exiftool $CMD (and not "$CMD"), where CMD="-IPTC:Keywords=... -IPTC:Keywords=..."

Hi. I have a problem which I think is related to this. I am trying to copy across my IPTC tags to Windows XP tags, so that I can search for photos in Windows by tags. At the moment I am using the following:

exiftool -ObjectName>XPTitle -Caption-Abstract>XPSubject -Keywords>XPKeywords test.jpg

All is working well apart from the keywords - only the first word on the list is copied across. I am guessing this is because IPTC Keywords is a list tag and XP Keywords is a normal text tag. Is there any way to convert from one to the other?

Thanks,

Adrian

Wow, that was pretty impressive. Hooray for concatenation.

That was obviously just too easy, so here's another one. Now I'd like to be able to take the IPTC location tags (City, Sub-location, etc.) and add them to my shiny new XP Keywords. My first step was to try:

exiftool -City+>XPKeywords

but this didn't work because XP Keywords is not a list. Is there a way to append text to normal tags like this? I suppose I could first add them to IPTC Keywords and then copy the whole lot across, but that doesn't seem like the most efficient approach.

Was there a change from 7.06 to 7.07? Tags are not imported to Flickr anymore, when I use 7.07, but it works with 7.06. With 7.07 Flickr imports all tags as 1 tag. I import the tags from a file.
