| Exifer - is a nearly free software (you only
should send me a postcard if you're using Exifer frequently) with which you
can manage the metadata (EXIF/IPTC) of pictures taken by digital cameras. |
tucows.com | A
technical note: There is some software (e.g. Thumbs+,
PhotoThumb, PHP functions) which doesn't recognize the EXIF data after
modifying with Exifer anymore. I'm pretty sure that these programs don't read
the offset value to the first EXIF ifd header, instead they may assume that
it begins at offset 8. For keeping the makernotes, Exifer moves the first ifd
header to a new position (this corresponds to the TIFF specification). The
following programs don't have any problems with images modified by Exifer:
