NAME

6       pmltoxmp ‐  convert a PhotoML file to XMP format
7

SYNOPSIS

9       pmltoxmp  [-h] [-n] (([-o path] [-s fstr]) | ([-g fid] [-f gid])) [xml‐
10       file]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       pmltoxmp is a shell script that calls xsltproc to transform a subset of
14       data in a PhotoML XML file into XMP format. If a single frame is speci‐
15       fied for output, it is written to stdout, otherwise a  separate  output
16       file is written for each frame in the PhotoML file.
17
18       The primary purpose of conversion to XMP format is to allow a subset of
19       PhotoML data to be included in the metadata of a digital image by using
20       the  exiftool  utility,  which  can use XMP data as input. For example,
21       assuming that PhotoML data for roll 2001r12 is in file photoml.xml, and
22       file  2001r22f01n01.jpg is a scan of frame 01 on that roll, the follow‐
23       ing commands would copy a subset of the  PhotoML  data  into  the  EXIF
24       metadata of the digital image:
25
26              pmltoxmp -g 2001r12 -f 01 photoml.xml > tmp.xmp
27              exiftool -TagsFromFile tmp.xmp 2001r22f01n01.jpg

OPTIONS

30       pmltoxmp accepts the following options:
31
32       -h      Display usage information.
33
34       -n      Omit the validity test prior to applying the XSL.
35
36       -o path Specify the output path. The default value is ".".
37
38       -s fstr Specify  image  id  format  string. This format is used to con‐
39               struct both the EXIF DocumentName value and the output filename
40               (when  relevant).   Occurrences of "%g" and "%f" in this string
41               are substituted with the group and frame ids respectively.  The
42               default value is "%gf%f".
43
44       -g gid  Specify id of group containing frame to convert.
45
46       -f fid  Specify id of frame to convert.
