Imbed Filename in Metadata
Hi, how do I embed the original Windows photo filename in the Title or Document Title field of the metadata for all the photo files in a directory? Thanks, Pete.

Hi Pete,

I'm not sure exactly of the tags you want to copy, but the command will look something like this:

exiftool "-xptitle<filename" "c:/images"

To determine the exact tags names to use, run "exiftool -s" on a file which contains the tags to see what they are called.
