The EXIFutils are a set of command line utilities that extract, add, remove, copy, and replace EXIF and IPTC data from JPEG, TIFF, and other image file formats including proprietary Raw formats. For more information see EXIFutils Features.
EXIFutils V2.7 includes the following new features:
Support for international character sets
EXIFutils commands can now interpret and set EXIF and IPTC fields values using character sets other than the basic low range ASCII characters, including WindowsXP-specific UNICODE fields.
Added the /p option to set the character set used to interpret EXIF and IPTC text fields. Environment variables can also be used to specify characters sets.
Added the /u option to exifedit to specify that EXIF Comment fields are to be stored in UNICODE (previous only ASCII comments were supported).
Add support for viewing and editing Windows XP specific UNICODE fields.
Added /i option to exiflist, to display the character sets being used.
Support for additional file format and camera makes
Add "read only" support for EXIF fields in Encapsulated Postscript (.eps) files.
Add support for Ricoh Maker Note fields.
Add read only support for Ricoh RMETA Custom Fields (created by Ricoh Pro G3 GPS-capable camera).
Changes to EXIF and IPTC field definitions
Add support for XP Digital Image Pro Tags field (0x4747)
InCrease Max length of ip-keyword field from 32 to 1999 characters.
Add list of defined values for IPTC Coded Character Set field (1:90), nickname ip1-char-set.
If the denominator of the exp-time value is not a whole number to two decimal places, then display it's value to two decimal places.
Bug Fixes
Fix bug where two fields had the same nickname (n3-color-mode). Second occurence of the field was renamed to n3-color-mode2.
Make handling of invalid 'next IFD' offset pointers more robust. In previous Versions invalid offset pointers cause a "too many format errors" message and resulted in incomplete EXIF data.
