Thanks to Rob and David for taking the time to add your suggestions. EXIF Tool and Windows GUI and ran the program using copies of the two sets of pictures, to be sure, to be sure, and worked first time.īTW, from what I can gather, the program will also enable other aspects of Exif/metadata to be modified and copied etc. Using that information, I downloaded the two links i.e. However, I found a helpful web page at which explained the initial steps very clearly. I ought to add that my tekkie skills are somewhere between poor and moderate, so it all looked rather daunting at first. Update: I decided to try Mark's suggestions sooner than anticipated. The Windows GUI that goes with EXIF Tool can be found here See the -tagsFromFile option in the application documentation for more details. This option may also be used to transfer information between different tags within a single image or between different images. Depending on the formats of the source and destination files, some of tags read may not be valid in the destination file, in which case they aren't written. This option is very simple, yet very powerful. If no tags are specified, then all writable tags are copied. Any tags specified after this option on the command line are extracted from source file and written to the destination file. The command-line syntax for doing this is "-tagsFromFile SRCFILE".
