  In the IMatch forum, a question came up if it's possible to use -copyfromtags and -Orientation in one call? One of the IMatch scripts that implements ExifTool (FolderWise Exif Copy) currently makes two separate calls to accomplish this. We were just wondering if it's possible to do it in one, for the sake of efficiency, I suppose. No big deal. Just curious.

  Thanks,

  Alex

If you are talking about copying tags from another file using -tagsfromfile and writing Orientation with -orientation=VAL, then yes, both of these can be done in a single command.
