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.

Hi David,

You're welcome.

...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 ($).

What can I say except...

(the only proper response)
"It didn't work" isn't helpful. What was the exact command used and the output.
Read FAQ #3 and use that cmd
Please use the Code button for exiftool output

Please include your OS/Exiftool version/filetype
