IPTC Import from CSV-File

[deejay]

hello community,

I want to write IPTC data in JPG images. The starting point is a csv file. Is there this possibility? Unfortunately I couldn't find anything about it.

Greetings deejay

how is your csv file?

Hi,

I briefly take a look. We evaluate XNView for our company. The images are product images that we would like to equip with the IPTC data. Our PIM does not currently offer this function. We are free to use the CSV file. I can adapt this accordingly

E.g.
"Filename"; "Caption"; "Caption writer"; "Headline"; "Keywords" etc.

Should I have to adapt the file, that would not be a problem either.

Thanks for the support

And you would like to update IPTC not XMP, right?

Hi,

correct we would like to embed the data directly in the images via IPTC.

Edit:
I would also target XMP. It is important for us that the data is embedded in the image and not included as a file. We have chosen IPTC as an "alternative" because some older systems do not necessarily read out the XMP data.

It would be perfect if we could import XMP and then also write this data in IPTC.

Is it possible for you to create a .ipt file like the one that you can export in 'Edit IPTC'>Save template?

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!DOCTYPE iptc_template><iptc_template version="1.0">
    <tag_105>
        <value>headline</value>
    </tag_105>
    <tag_120>
        <value>caption</value>
    </tag_120>
    <tag_122/>
</iptc_template>
