I've been looking for a methode to get all data from a sidecar file into DNG, including adobe Bridge Hierarchical keywords. XMP files have the same name as the DNG. Is this possible?
Thanks a million.

There are a few ways to do this:

1. To combine the XMP with existing XMP in the DNG:


This will write only writable XMP tags, so may not transfer some
uncommon tags to the file.

2. To overwrite existing XMP in the DNG with the sidecar file:


This will write the full XMP sidecar file to the DNG.

DIR may be one or more file and/or directory names.  Use the
-r option to also process DNG files in subdirectories.
