Why is it if I use the shell script (in Mac OS 10.6.4) as follows
do shell script "exiftool '-author=Enrique Cubillo' '/Volumes/Photo [Work]/Entermedia_Conversion/BAD/test/63003E-04.jpg'"
I get the error
error "sh: -c: line 0: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `''
sh: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file" number 2
but if I do a "save as" in Photoshop and save the file with the same name, the script runs fine and it sets the author field correctly.
Is there a way around this in exiftool rather than having to resave all my image files?
Thanks.

Funny. I just tried it and this script works fine for me as long as exiftool is installed in the shell PATH and the image file exists.

Oh, I see. You want the script to work before you write the file from Photoshop. To do this, you would have to write a Photoshop plug-in I believe. But I don't know how this is done.
