Hello
I'm using this command to transfer all metadate from one to another file. This works but special characters are not shown correctly.
exiftool -TagsFromFile source.tif -IPTC:All -XMP:All dest.jpg
In the source picture I can see this:
Coded Character Set : UTF8
But in the destination "Coded Character Set" is empty.
How can I change this? The option "-charset utf8 " does not help.
Thanks for help
OK got it 8)
-codedcharacterset=utf8 helps a lot.
The CodedCharacterSet tag is marked as Unsafe to copy (see the IPTC tags page (https://exiftool.org/TagNames/IPTC.html)). You either have to explicitly copy it
exiftool -TagsFromFile source.jpg -All:All -CodedCharacterSet target.jpg
Or directly set it as you found.
