JExifToolGUI is only a graphical frontend for the excellent open source JExifToolGUI: j for java, GUI for Graphical User Interface to ExifTool. Next to that you can also define "brand new" non-existing tags that can be added to your files using a user-defined configuration file and user define tag combination. This gives you the option to use any tag that Exiftool supports. Next to that you can define your own combination of metadata tags to write to your images. It has some preformatted screens for exif, gps/location, xmp, gpano (and a very limited set of IPTC) tags to write/read from/to image files using ExifTool and it also supports geotagging. JExifToolGUI is a java Swing program that reads and writes metadata from files, predominantly image files.

In case of a PNG file also EXIF metadata and also IPTC/Photoshop tags are not stored. Here I have seen that the MakerNote tags (which belong for me to EXIF) are not stored. I did some short tests with*.jpg images and tried to save them as PNG or TIFF files. So in my opinion it would be better to set the checkboxes (I guess it depends on the format itself). The disabled checkboxes tell me that they are always checked (in my case).īut the behaviour for these file formats is as in case of unchecked checkboxes. Whether they are checked or unchecked depends on my settings done for *.jpg files. BMP or JPEGXR) these checkboxes "Keep EXIF", "Keep IPTC", "Keep XMP and "Keep Icc profile" become disabled. In case of I select now a file format different to JPG, PNG or TIFF (e.g. This is the starting point of the following

With menus "File -> Format settings -> Write" it is possible to enter preferences for various supported file formats.įor *.JPG files I check all checkboxes "Keep EXIF", "Keep IPTC", "Keep XMP and "Keep Icc profile" that control writing of metadata. I have questions to XnViewMP 0.64 open in viewer.
