Hello,
I'm having a problem with the tags containing spaces in the description. I saw in the FAQ https://exiftool.org/faq.html#Q2 that we had to use the -s option to see the real name of the tag.
exiftool -s 00525820.jpg | grep Custom
CustomField1 : Isopix
CustomField2 : Agences d'origine
CustomField3 : Photographe
CustomField4 : Isopix
So when I want to edit CustomField4 for example I get the error :
exiftool -CustomField4=Reporters 00525820.jpg
Warning: Tag 'CustomField4' does not exist
Nothing to do.
ExifToolVersion : 9.01
Is there a bug or am i doing something wrong ?
Thank you & Regards.
I did some research, and I'm guessing that this is a proprietary Fotostation XMP tag.
You can write these tags, but it will require creating user-define tags to do this.
If you can post the output of "exiftool -xmp -b" on this file, I can verify my assumption about the origin of this tag.

Thank you for your quick answer. Here is the output :
exiftool -xmp -b 00525820.jpg

I was correct. :)
Attached below is a config file that will allow you to write all of the proprietary Fotostation XMP tags in this image.
See the sample config file (https://exiftool.org/config.html) for instructions on how to activate the attached file.

Thank you for your great help Phil.
