Hi,
the following command, I use to export anchor points from an image, usually works perfectly:
exiftool -config ./config_files/photoshop_paths.config -userparam anchor -allpaths testimg.jpg -j
but in some cases it returns a lot of garbage followed by the actual path:
[{

"Path7d0": "M\u00008m?\u0000\u0001\u0000.\u0004?\u0000=c?\u0000.ff\u0000?o\u0002\u0000.??\u0000@?0\u0000\u0002\u0000/?Y\u0000Ae8\u0000/?\u0014\u0000B??\u0000/Og\u0000D.\u001D\u0000\u0002\u0000.a?\u0000E?o\u0000.\u0014{\u0000G\\?\u0000-??\u0000K#e\u0000\u0002\u0000-??\u0000N?2\u0000-p?\u0000R??\u0000-?)\u0000Sr\u0003\u0000\u0002\u0000.??\u0000T3_\u0000/\n=\u0000T??\u0000.?;\u0000V??\u0000\u0001\u0000-?\u000B\u0000X?\u0017\u0000-p?\u0000Z??\u0000,Ƹ\u0000^?H\u0000\u0001\u0000.ε\u0000c7\r\u0000.\u0014{\u0000e?h\u0000-?O\u0000g.?\u0000\u0001\u0000,?q\u0000g4?\u0000,??\u0000i?X\u0000-[\u0017\u0000o?}/#cutout (0.464602,0.18125) (0.449115,0.14375) (0.493363,0.12375) (0.493363,0.125) (0.513274,0.13375) (0.542035,0.135) (0.566372,0.1025) (0.568584,0.095) (0.575221,0.09) (0.575221,0.08625) (0.683628,0.01625) (0.772124,0.0125) (0.792035,0.0125) (0.849558,0.0175) (0.949115,0.0975) (0.977876,0.1925) (0.984513,0.23375) (0.962389,0.235) (0.955752,0.23375) (0.955752,0.23625) (0.940265,0.27375) (0.911504,0.34125) (0.909292,0.35375) (0.878319,0.42625) (0.878319,0.4325) (0.869469,0.4475) (0.869469,0.45375) (0.836283,0.52625) (0.829646,0.54875) (0.785398,0.64) (0.785398,0.705) (0.785398,0.7875) (0.783186,0.82) (0.785398,0.85375) (0.783186,0.8775) (0.783186,0.89375) (0.776549,0.91375) (0.767699,0.92375) (0.763274,0.935) (0.75,0.94125) (0.570796,0.9825) (0.519912,0.985) (0.411504,0.9875) (0.349558,0.98875) (0.265487,0.985) (0.20354,0.9775) (0.192478,0.9775) (0.174779,0.9725) (0.152655,0.97125) (0.106195,0.96125) (0.0929204,0.96) (0.0199115,0.9225) (0.0176991,0.9) (0.0132743,0.8775) (0.0154867,0.86625) (0.0132743,0.80875) (0.0154867,0.775) (0.0176991,0.6725) (0.0199115,0.5575) (0.0221239,0.49125) (0.0221239,0.455) (0.0243363,0.41625) (0.0265487,0.37) (0.0265487,0.33375) (0.0309734,0.3075) (0.0376106,0.2775) (0.0707965,0.2275) (0.110619,0.20625) (0.126106,0.2025) (0.134956,0.1975) (0.15708,0.19375) (0.165929,0.1875)"

Please find attached one of the images that is giving such result.
I'm using Linux Mint 18.1 with ExifTool ver. 10.43.
Any idea about why this is happening?
Thanks
Nico
Hi Nico,
Thanks for the report and test file.
I think the attached config file may solve this problem.

Hi Phil,
thanks for you super fast fix. I've tested it with 12 images that were giving problems and it seems that now everything is working as expected.
Cheers,
Nico
Great!
