ExifTool Forum

hi,

i need help.

I need a command for exiftool to put a name of pdf file in the title TAG...

like : title="original_name.pfd by exiftool"

thanks

problem solve!!!

command line is : exiftool"-Title<myname" *.pdf

and code of .exiftool_config is:



%Image::ExifTool::UserDefined = (
    'Image::ExifTool::Composite' => {
        MyName => {
            Require => 'FileName',
            # remove "_code.pdf" from end of FileName
            ValueConv => '$val =~ s/_code\.pdf//; $val',
        },
    },
);


thanks

Since you want the whole file name in the title, you don't need the config file and you can use this command:

exiftool "-Title<FileName" *.pdf

Edit: Added missing space in command after "exiftool"

hi, thanks for help.

but i have one problem ... i need the file name and more text.

example:

Title = name of file + "by exiftool"

You do that like this:

exiftool "-Title<$FileName by exiftool" *.pdf

But if you are on Mac or Linux you must use single quotes instead of double.

thanks Phil...

exiftool is the best...
