I’m exporting tiff files from PhotoMechanic with copyright information in the appropriate IPTC fields, but when I edit the file in Photolab 9.6 then export to a jpg with the IPTC option checked at the bottom of the settings — the information doesn’t appear to be written out to the jpg file.
Am I missing something entirely or is Photolab 9.6 just not bringing said data into the exported file?
I have seen similar problems when exporting to DNG compressed. Metadata are not (or very partially) exported despite the configuration set to do so. In my case JPEG seem fine for the metadata i use. I don’t really set IPCT
I have a support ticket #636658 open about this one.
It does feels like something is wrong in the way the Export module handle the Metadatas.
I tried using PhotoLab 9.6 to edit and export TIFF or JPEG files, selecting either EXIF or IPTC metadata. The exported files were all normal, with copyright and EXIF information displayed correctly. I’m unsure what your problem is. I’m using macOS.
I’m going to fiddle with some different options to see where things are breaking down. I suspect it might be the formatting on the tiff file… but that’s just a hunch.
