Hi:

Using this code,

'exiftool -p  "$filename, $keywords" "&MDIR" > R2.txt'

I get some simbols like copyright and the accents not properly

I have tried

'exiftool -p  "$filename, $keywords -charset cp1252" "&MDIR" > R2.txt'

'exiftool -p -charset cp1252 "$filename, $keywords" "&MDIR" > R2.txt'

or

'exiftool -p  "$filename, $keywords -charset UTF8" "&MDIR" > R2.txt'
'exiftool -p  -charset UTF8 "$filename, $keywords" "&MDIR" > R2.txt'

But no change.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Hi Emilio,

It could be that the IPTC is not properly encoded.  Did you read FAQ number 10?

...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux/PowerShell, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).
