Hello, first post here. I am a commercial photographer who has provided several hundred images from a 3 month project to a client. RAW to JPG, 5 sizes from Full size to 320 pixel JPGs. They are fully Keyworded through Lightroom 4. They are uploading them to an intranet. The client wants to search by keyword. The Design firm designing the intranet is not sure if they can interface to parce Keywords or whether they need to be hand injected.
I tried this and extracted a txt file.
exiftool -keywords -r /Users/path > extracted_keywords.txt
Is this the best method to provide the keywords should they need to be extracted? Or is there another database file type available to enter for output?
Thanks,
Doug Walker, CPP, FP

Hi Doug,
It really depends on what your clients prefer. ExifTool can output information in a variety of formats. CVS is a common one, but there are different options. Read FAQ number 12 (https://exiftool.org/faq.html#Q12) for a discussion of this.
