I am looking for a way to add a value to an exiting tag.  I want to  use the "fileSource" tag and use values other than the standard ones.  When I try to do this with "filesource=(new value)", I get a PrintConv error.

How do I modify the PrintConv for a tag?

You can override the existing tag definition with a user-defined
tag.  The new tag should contain all of the original elements from
Exif.pm and WriteExif.pl.  See the
https://exiftool.org/config.html" target="_blank">config
file documentation for
details about creating a user-defined tag.
