Read all tags from a text file, and write them to jpeg file
Hello all, I wish to known if the module can read a single file to write all exif or xmp tags, and which format I can use : xml, xmp, txt, etc ? Thanks

See the other thread "Script to write text file content to exif as keywords". I didn't try it, but I sea no reason, why this shouldn't work with different tags.

It is possible to use a TXT file, but usually a bit of scripting is necessary because TXT files don't have a standard format (unless you put it in the format of a -@ ARGFILE). So the preferred technique would be to put the information in an XMP file -- copying tags from XMP to JPG is easy.
