Hello,

i have some hundret *.tif Pictures with Names in the IPTC Datas.
Now i would like to write them to my *.nef Pictures, wich have the same names as the *.tif.
as: (FB_01_01.tif; FB_01_01.nef ...)

Is this possible?


Greetings Burlewack

The following command will do this for all images in directory DIR:

exiftool -tagsfromfile %d%f.tif -iptc:all -ext nef DIR

- Phil
...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 ($).

Hi Phil,

is it also possible to write the "person" tag from the tif to the nef?
How does this work? Only write person or write person with the iptc data?

Thanks

Phil Harvey

You can copy whatever tags you want, just specify them after the -tagsfromfile option.
