Title: copyright symbol not working with -copyrightNotice
Post by: framebuffer on September 23, 2010, 12:16:45 AM

I'm using ExifTool 8.31 executable on XP and the following command:

exiftool.exe -exif:all= -tagsfromfile @ -copyright="©2010" -copyrightNotice="©2010" *.JPG

results with, "Warning: Malformed UTF-8 character(s)".

The EXIF copyright tagging works, while IPTC copyright notice is null (caused by "©"). I can add "©" to copyright notice using other editors.

Thanks

It looks like you're using Windows, so you should probably use the -L option when entering special characters from the command line. See FAQ number 10 (https://exiftool.org/faq.html#Q10) for all of the gory details.

Thanks, -L worked just fine.
