There is a simple .JPG file, and I want to create a "Creator" tag for it.
So, after creation, and after I scan all tags, I notice that not just "Creator" tag added, but also "
XMPToolkit" with value "
Image::ExifTool 10.99"
and it looks something like this:
Quote.....
XMPToolkit : Image::ExifTool 10.99
Creator : JohnSmith
.....
1) why ExifTool behave like this? what is the need for auto-creation for this tag?
2) how to avoid this? yes, I can delete it by command ...
exiftool file.jpg -xmptoolkit=... but it would be better to avoid it in the process of creation tags I want to.
See my other post (https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php/topic,9246.msg47800.html#msg47800).
You can use this command:
exiftool -creator=JohnSmith -xmptoolkit= FILE
BTW, ExifTool is the only XMP toolkit I know that will allow the user to do this.

Oh, that's pretty neat! It works.
