I have a picture that is modified by an external program and the problem is that the metadata is lost.
So I use exiftool to "restore" the original metadata by calling exiftool -tagsFromFile specifying the original JPG and the modified one.
Problem is that from time to time I see differences in numbers having decimal separator.
For example Max apperture is originally 3, and when I use exiftool -TagsFromFile, the target file has 2.9708....
Is there a way to handle these values properly
Thanks
I think this is related to FAQ 4 (https://exiftool.org/faq.html#Q4).
To help more, I need you to answer these questions:
1. What was the command you used to copy the metdata?
2. What is the output of this command for the original file?: exiftool -maxaperture -a -G1 -n FILE
