I am new to ExifTool and I have had some success editing some of the generic tags but anything within a structure is a challenge.

To be precise I am attempting to remove the dot shape value from the Esko XMP ink structure. See image attached.

Any advice welcome. Thank you in advance.

This isn't for the faint of heart.  You need to first create a user-defined tag to be able to write the egInk tags.  After you do this, you should be able to delete the dot shape with a command something like this:

exiftool -inksdotshape= FILE

See the NewXMPxxxStruct definition in the sample config file for an example of how to create a user-defined XMP structure.  Note that your structure is inside a Seq list, so you should add "List => 'Seq'," to the "inks" tag definition.

...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 ($).

Thank you very much Phil. I will give that a go  :)

Hi Phil

Are saying my command should look something like this?

exiftool -config file.txt -inksdotshape= artwork.pdf

Yes.  If you have any problems, attach the config file you are using and the sample XMP and I'll take a look.

exiftool -xmp -b artwork.pdf > sample.xmp

Hi Phil

I am failing miserably  :-\. Despite my best efforts I am still encountering the error. Warning: Tag 'inksdotshape' is not defined

Here is my config file. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Code Select
%Image::ExifTool::UserDefined::egInk = (
    GROUPS => { 0 => 'XMP', 1 => 'XMP-egInk', 2 => 'Image' },
    NAMESPACE => { 'egInk' => 'http://ns.esko-graphics.com/inkinfo/1.0/' },
    WRITABLE => 'string', # (default to string-type tags)

    Inks => {
              List=> 'Seq',
              struct => {
                            NAMESPACE => { 'egInk' => 'http://ns.esko-graphics.com/inkinfo/1.0/' },
                            name => { },
                            type => { },
                            book => { },
                            egname => { },
                            frequency => { },
                            angle => { },
                            dotshape => { },
                            r => { },
                            g => { },
                            b => { },
                            attribute => { },
                            printingmethod => { },
                           
              },

        },

Two problems:

1. You needed to add the egInk namespace to the Main XMP table.

2. "Struct" needed to be capitalized.

Here is the fixed version:

Code Select
%Image::ExifTool::UserDefined::egGr = (
    GROUPS => { 0 => 'XMP', 1 => 'XMP-egGr', 2 => 'Image' },
    NAMESPACE => { 'egGr' => 'http://ns.esko-graphics.com/grinfo/1.0/' },
    WRITABLE => 'string', # (default to string-type tags)

    Inks => {
        List=> 'Seq',
        Struct => {
            NAMESPACE => { 'egInk' => 'http://ns.esko-graphics.com/inkinfo/1.0/' },
            name => { },
            type => { },
            book => { },
            egname => { },
            frequency => { },
            angle => { },
            dotshape => { },
            r => { },
            g => { },
            b => { },
            attribute => { },
            printingmethod => { },
        },
    },
);

%Image::ExifTool::UserDefined = (
    'Image::ExifTool::XMP::Main' => {
        egGr => {
            SubDirectory => {
                TagTable => 'Image::ExifTool::UserDefined::egGr',
            },
        },
    },
);

1; # end

- Phil

Edit:  I just tried this out and it doesn't delete the ink... Hmmm.  I'll try to figure out what is going on.

Ah.  The namespace is egGr for the inks tag, and egInks for the structure elements.  I've fixed this too and updated the config file above.
...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 ($).

Thanks again.

Progress indeed, however it appears have broken XMP.

Please see the resulting XML below. Some strange transformations have occurred .

The XMP looks perfectly fine to me.  Maybe ESKO doesn't like the missing dotshape.

- 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

I tried both command options with your config file.

-inksdotshape= - Removes tag entirely
-inksdotshape=" " - Replaces tag value with space.

Forgot to mention there was a minor error after running the commands: Warning: [minor] Ignored empty rdf:Bag list for egCadL:files

Below is en example where I edited the XMP data in Acrobat Pro. The XMP remains valid after deleting the dotshape tag.

Good sleuthing.  The only difference is that ExifTool has deleted some empty lists (besides changing the organization, but this shouldn't make a difference).  Try this in ESKO.  Here I have deleted them by hand, leaving the original organization of the XMP from your last posted unchanged.

And here is exactly the same XMP, but organized differently (a-la ExifTool).

Please try this too.

- Phil

Edit: If this doesn't work but test1 does, then maybe try trivially editing this file in Acrobat Pro then seeing if the result works in ESKO.

Both examples worked.

Ah.  Got it. "Inks" needs a lower case "i" in the config file.  It should be "inks".

Details, details.  Gotta mind those details.

I literally can't thank you enough.
