In this post by @Cici, they attached a newer EXIF for XMP PDF that has some tags and changes not defined by exiftool.

(On a side note, I couldn't find it on CIPA, though I figured out how to download it using this link)

XMP-exif:ImageUniqueID
has been replaced by
XMP-exifEX:ImageUniqueID
which isn't defined
Numbered page 20 (physical page 25) of the PDF

XMP-exifEX:Photographer
XMP-exifEX:ImageEditor
XMP-exifEX:CameraFirmware
XMP-exifEX:RAWDevelopingSoftware
XMP-exifEX:ImageEditingSoftware
XMP-exifEX:MetadataEditingSoftware

are missing
Numbered page 21 (physical page 26)

EXIF tag 0xa436 is called Title by exiftool, but ImageTitle by the EXIF spec. It probably should have a note on the EXIF Tags page mentioning that.

Also, the corrisponding
XMP-exifEX:ImageTitle
is missing.
Numbered page 21 (physical page 26)

I'm still looking over the PDF and I'll post back if I find any other problems.

Thanks.  I had forgotten to add these.  I'll add them and change the Title to ImageTitle in EXIF as well.

It is sort of stupid to move a tag to a different namespace, but this is CIPA.  I'll keep both and mark the old one as "Avoid".

As you probably already found out, EXIF:Title was already marked as Avoid. I assume it was done so in order to avoid conflicting with the XMP:Title, which would be more common.  I didn't even realize there was an EXIF:Title tag, as I have never seen it used.

I don't think I have either, which is why I'm OK to rename this to ImageTitle and remove the Avoid flag.
