I have recently used exiftool in an Automator workflow for macOS X Catalina. One command was used to extract a JPG preview from a DNG file and another command was used to copy the DNG orientation tag to the extracted JPG.

Sincere thanks to Phil and the entire exiftool community.

* Please use the Code button for exiftool code/output.
 
* Please include your OS, Exiftool version, and type of file you're processing (MP4, JPG, etc).
