Photoshop Tags
Photoshop tags are found in PSD and PSB files, as well as inside embedded
Photoshop information in many other file types (JPEG, TIFF, PDF, PNG to name
a few).
Many Photoshop tags are marked as Unknown (indicated by a question mark
after the tag name) because the information they provide is not very useful
under normal circumstances. These unknown tags are not extracted unless the
Unknown (-u) option is used. See
http://www.adobe.com/devnet-apps/photoshop/fileformatashtml/ for the
official specification

that the XMP is synchronized with the IPTC. When writing, special values of
"new" and "old" represent the digests of the IPTC from the edited and
original files respectively, and are undefined if the IPTC does not exist in
the respective file. Set this to "new" as an indication that the XMP is
synchronized with the IPTC) |
