Title: Keywords restricted to 64 chars
Post by: sridhar on July 18, 2012, 10:23:33 PM
Hi,

Found that keywords are being restricted to 64 chars whereas photoshop does not.
Photoshop support team mentioned like they are following the new IPTC XMP specification ?!
Is there any setting (command line arg or switch), to make exiftool follow the same specification.

Thanks,
Sridhar

Hi Sridar,

Tag keywords is defined for (old) Iptc metadata standard. New specification uses Xmp:Subject tag instead and of course, ExifTool supports it.
