FDK in XMP metadata support?

I want to be able to add metadata programmatically to the FrameMaker files to make them more searchable.

According to the reference of the programmer (Version 10) FDK, you can "change given XMP directly for a document by assigning a value to the document FP_FileInfoPacket. property. There is even a FDK (setxmpinfo.c) client to show how this is possible.

The problem?

(1) getting the property returns an empty string, the document (or a book) contains a XMP packet.

(2) the definition of the property, no error (FA_Errno rest 0 value), but nothing useful happens. Reading the value immediately after returns nothing, see above and saving the file does not change the existing sort XMP packet.

I also tried to read the FP_PDFDocInfo property, which is expected to contain the pairs of strings corresponding to the content of the 'File Info' box in FrameMaker and also a subset of the information coded in the XMP packet, but invariably obtained a list of string empty.

Thank you very much in advance for any suggestions that might be useful. :-)

Hello M Ulrik,

I just ran the sample setxmpinfo on 10.0.2.419 FrameMaker FDK generation, and it is not working properly.

Can you please confirm the FramaMaker build number you are trying to define the XMP data? If you are not on the latest version of FM10, so please apply all the patches. And let me know if you still having the problem.

Thank you!

    How to display XMP metadata in Adobe Reader?

    I created a PDF with XMP metadata (I think), and I want of course to check it has been done correctly.  However, it is not obvious how to display it in Adobe Reader (I use 11.0.04 on OS X).  Autour Googling, I found a flippant remark that Reader is not able to do this, but it's obviously insane - what is the point of license metadata if no one can see it?  What is - that I'm missing?

    Best wishes

    I can tell you that the metadata about the object 52 0 is properly integrated with the PDF, and therefore the metadata document. See this screen shot in Acrobat X, which I get to by clicking on the additional metadata button.

    I have been using the display of the metadata to create customized XMP metadata schemas.  Everything works fine, the fields will appear in all of the Creative suite, but I can't for the life of understand me how to remove (or change the name of) is to get a custom schema when it is created, the metadata view of the crowded with patterns that I misspelled or that are in the wrong place or have decided that I didn't need it for my project. The only option I have is to 'Add a property' which is useful I can get the right patterns labeled correctly and in the right order.    Can someone tell me how to delete or change these individually custom schemas?

    You are on an older version or CC? In CC, your custom drawings are stored here: Documents/Adobe/Premiere Pro/7.0/Profile-metadata Preferences. The path was different in the earlier version, and I don't remember what it was. But the search for the computer for the name of one of your drawings should take you directly to them.

    I advise to proceed with caution regarding renaming them or removing custom schemas. After playing with one of mine, I stumbled upon a crash on launch of the project which was open when I created the loading pattern. The accident has no repro in two subsequent tests, then at this point, I suspect his unrelated to the renaming of the schema. Still, I thought that I must warn you...

  • Alfresco XMP metadata Extractor

    Hi all

    First of all, I want to apologize if I make stupid questions, as I am new to the world of Adobe...

    I'm a Consultant Alfresco and extract the downloaded file Adobe XMP metadata. Alfresco is a product of Java I have to do it in Java, so I was wondering if there is any Maven repository I can point to use libraries of Adobe (is there any Java library for XMP metadata extraction?)

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    the XMP SDK for JAVA contains only the XMPCore component, which is the actual data model. XMPFiles for retrieval and incorporation or to files is currently available in C/C++.

    If you want to trigger an extraction of java, you must call the lib C of Java (for example using JNI).

  • [CS3 JS] How to force the update of XMP metadata for a thumbnail?

    Hi people,

    In a JavaScript in Bridge CS3, I update a value in the XMP metadata for a thumbnail. Later in the script I want to read the updated metadata XMP of miniature, but often the bridge didn't updated metadata at the time wherever I read it. In other words, my script reads the value before the update. I guess there is a problem of ongoing caching.

    I'm new to the bridge of script, and I hope someone here can offer suggestions on how I can (or even * if * I can) force the bridge to update the cache of the XMP metadata to a file so that when I read it later in the script reflect the recent changes. I tried to use Thumbnail.refresh (), but this does not seem to do the trick. I don't mind a slow script, I just want to be able to read the correct value.

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    -Jim

    Where is the line?

    Thumb.Metadata = new Metadata (updatedPacket);

    Try

    app.synchronousMode = true;

    Thumb.Metadata = new Metadata (updatedPacket);

    approx. synchronousMode = false;

    Metadata default bridge updates arrive in the background and not on the main thread, but using the mode synchronous here your script only continues to the next line, until the operation is complete.

  • Reading/writing XMP metadata

    can anyone advise how to read and write XMP metadata by using the version of iText comes with CF8?

    We wrote the metadata XMP into a PDF file (see attached proof-of-concept code bolted together some sources) successfully, but this metadata does not appear in the additional Acrobat Pro 7 - metadata file properties and also seem to not be readable using the iText PDFReader class to read the same file (via PdfReader.getMetadata ()).

    We compared the first output file between a PDF created by iText generated by CF and a PDF file containing readable metadata created with another app CF iText PDF adds XMP header/footer XML to RDF package content to the tail of the PDF workflow and does not add the RDF metadata at the head of the PDF file.

    We also tried to create our own XMPSchema with our custom namespace, but get an instantiation error trying to create the new XMPSchema.

    The XmpArray constructor expects one of the constant values. Not the literal string "UNORDERED".

    Change your instantiation code of this
    subject = CreateObject("java","com.lowagie.text.xml.xmp.XmpArray").init ("UNORDERED");

    For this
    XmpArray is a CreateObject ("java", "com.lowagie.text.xml.xmp.XmpArray");.
    subject = XmpArray.init (XmpArray.UNORDERED);

  • Details: LR6 XMP metadata management

    I use hierarchies of keywords and a dam tool that supports the structure of metadata XMP LR hierarchy, as well as IPTC Core and Extension metadata.

    When I assign a keyword to a keyframe, the word (in fact the node at the end of a hierarchy of keywords) gets written in Subproperty, whereas the full hierarchy is written in XMP using the hierarchicalSubject structure.

    So, for example, photo tagged the word "Christmas" will be have a subproperty of Christmas entry, while the entrance to LR, hierarchicalSubject, aura of events | Holidays | Christmas.

    LR6 import these pictures in her quite happy catalog and show the keyword "Christmas" and also know that it is in a hierarchy of keywords of events | Holidays | Christmas.

    However, if I may say LR6 to save metadata in a photo, he insists on writing of all levels of the hierarchy as keywords separated in the Subproperty, as well as to preserve the entry hierarchicalSubject. I see no way to disable this behavior, and unless I can do it, I can't use LR6 to write metadata...

    This is the expected behavior, and there is no way to disable it?

    You can click on the right Christmas in the keyword list Panel and deactivate the option "export the words containing".  This will remove the inclusion of the events and events > holiday in XMP:Subject and IPTC:Keywords, but still include events | Holidays | Christmas in XMP:HierarchicalSubject.

    Unfortunately, there is no way to batch edit your keywords to turn off export keywords containing - go one at a time.  People have asked that the ability for years in the Adobe official feedback forum, but Adobe has not responded.   And a minor bug in the LR SDK prevents plugins to provide the missing functionality.  People have posted recipes for the use of the low-level tools of database to change the LR catalog, but it's obviously difficult and fragile.

    Alternatively, you could disable the "Include on export" option in keywords parents events and holidays.   This will also remove their inclusion in XMP:Subject and IPTC:Keywords.  But it will also remove their inclusion in XMP:HierarchicalSubject - you'll have Christmas rather than events. Holidays | Christmas.  But you can see that a better compromise.

  • Writing automatically save changes to XMP metadata

    Hi, I'm under LR 3.4.1.

    Under Lightroom > catalog settings > metadata, I ticked the box "Automatically write changes in XMP," for all the reasons described with such vociferousness here: http://thelightroomlab.com/2010/06/getting-started-right-adobe-photoshop-lightroom-3-criti cal-preference-menus / .

    However, I sometimes fear. I think that what a nightmare it would be if the 100 s of the changes that I made last week have been lost. If I select all my images (about 8000 of them) and press command-S.

    LR then produces a progress bar that says 'Save metadata', and for the next ten minutes, I hear my hard drive works, until the task is completed.

    What happens during this time? LR is re-record everything is still registered? I would have thought that if all changes have been saved automatically, this progress bar would just - ZIP - and is made in two seconds, not 10 minutes.

    Thank you. This is probably a stupid question.

    Thus, as others have said, I would try it in a slightly different way:

    All your changes are saved in the catalog file.  Each of them.  In order to "save your work", save your catalog.lrcat (catalog. LRCAT file).

    The XMP files were mainly intended for _sharing_ some (most) of your changes in the file with other programs that do not interface with LR natviely.  The main advantage of using the xmp sidecar files is so if you use another program to edit your images and want the changes to go in both directions.  This is the main use of this file.

    Control-S assume that you just want to write again.  If it doesn't bother checking to see whether or not she should.  He writes.  That's why it always takes time.

    Yes, the bottom line: you probably don't have the xmp sidecar, do not need to use the control-s all the time.

    See you soon!

  • LR3 write xmp metadata

    Set preferences automatically write changes to xmp file.  LR3 has continued to change in writing to xmp.

    When I choose a thumbnail and click on the "!" at the top right + click "Retry the export of metadata", I get this message: "could not write metadata.  Your drive less than 1 gigabyte of space on the left".

    That's right, as there are 200 MB of free space on the disk, especially, but I think that would be enough.  So the question is: how much free disk space I need for LR3 automatically continue to write metadata in xmp?

    The message you received and the statement made to the system requirements to run LR on the Lightroom home page

    minimum1GB of free disk space

    It seems likely that 1 GB is the minimum. However I would rather a large amount of free space on the disk is necessary for LR act effectively. But the minimum is pretty clear. Once you go below that you have problems and not only with the writing of metadata in the file, but write changes to the catalog itself if it is located on a drive with less than the minimum requirements that once written metadata takes very little space, but the writing process, it may require space on the disk for temporary files etc. Just make sure you have plenty of unused production capacity on any drive that you use with LR.

  • PNG 1x15px = 1 262 bytes!  How do I strip the exif/xmp metadata export?

    Hello

    I use Fireworks CS3 on Mac 10.4.11 to create png files used in my HTML/CSS layout (things like background gradients, rounded corners, etc.). Most of my png is really small pixel-wise (the most important is 15x15px). When Fireworks exports, the images are around 1 KB in size. Looking at the files exported in a hex editor .png, the largest part of the file is meta data like 'moment of creation', "EXtSoftware Adobe Fireworks CS3" and a huge block of < x: xmpmeta > XML. I don't want these meta data in the .png file. I need these images to be as small as possible to save bandwidth.

    I tried to export the .png as PNG32 using file-> export and file-> preview-> export Image. None of these exports the .png without meta-data. I tried to remove the meta data file-> file Info, but it will not let me delete some data, and it doesn't seem to do anything. If I export the same image in GIF format, 50 bytes. Certainly there is no channel alpha as GIF, but still!

    It seems there is a bug in the PNG exporter where it isn't metadata Strip. Does anyone have a work around for this? Even an image processor on the mac command line that can remove these data would be perfect.

    Thank you!

    Hi Jim

    Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, this does not work for me. However, it gives me an idea that worked. I was able to get the FW to export correctly by following these steps:

    1. unlock all layers in my main folder and select the entire document.
    2. all copy to the Clipboard.
    3. create a new file without title (FW will automatically know the right size depending on the size of the Clipboard of the canvas)
    4. Paste the layers in the new file.
    5 file-> export the file without a title in the output file desired without saving the changes.

    My file is now 207 bytes, much better than before. Thanks for the idea.

    However, the exported file still contains the metadata for "Time tExtCreation" and "tEXtSoftware Adobe Fireworks CS3", which amounts to another 60 + bytes of wasted space. I would like to suggest a feature. It would be great if FW had a "super skinny" export mode exported anything but the minimum amount of data image and nothing else. I'm so picky about this is because these files are used in an environment where they are requested 100 million times / month. These 60 extra bytes will cause an extra 6GB of bandwidth for the month. Not a huge deal, but it's all adds up.

    Thanks for the help!

  • Why not Lightroom support XMP?

    XMP is supported by a large number of Adobe products. So far I have no idea, why XMP is not taken in charge by Lightroom. E. g. in this thread is mentioned, "you cannot view XMP files in LR. You can read the data on their part and can write data on them, but never see them in LR. "Anyone know why this is the case?

    I am aware of the files xmp "sidecar" and the meaning of them. Lightroom can use to let other applications to see what Lightroom did with the file. My concerns are caused by another question: what is a workflow to add for example a formatted xmp statement of copyright (created by bridge) to an imgage file? Should I add the xmp file of the copyright for the file exported raw or JPEG?

    Try this. In Bridge, apply the declaration of copyright to an image and then import this image in Lightroom, ensure that no model of metadata is displayed in the import dialog box. Then save a new metadata preset, then you can apply it to other original.

    If the image is already in Lr, save metadata in the file, then go to the bridge and apply the copyright model and then use the metadata > read metadata. You can then create the preset metadata.

  • EXIF: and TIFF: metadata are missing from block XMP in Lightroom 4

    I recently purchased Lightroom 4 and overall I am very happy with it, but I encountered a problem.  I have a few scripts that capture information related to the XMP metadata block based on XML that is embedded in DNG and JPG files that I use.  I found that processed images with Lightroom 4 no longer export exif data: and tiff: data.

    To illustrate, a photo that I exported with an earlier version of Lightroom has the following features in the XMP block

    ...

    TIFF: do = 'Canon '.

    TIFF: Model = 'Canon EOS 40 d.

    TIFF: ImageWidth = "850".

    TIFF: ImageLength = "567".

    TIFF: XResolution = "240/1 '.

    TIFF: YResolution = "240/1 '.

    TIFF: ResolutionUnit = '2 '.

    EXIF:ExifVersion = '0221 '.

    EXIF:ExposureTime = "1/800.

    EXIF:ShutterSpeedValue = "9643856/1000000.

    EXIF:FNumber = ' 71/10.

    EXIF:ApertureValue = "5655638/1000000.

    EXIF:ExposureProgram = '3 '.

    EXIF:DateTimeOriginal = "" 2010-08 - 22 T 10: 52:07.58 + 01:00 ""

    EXIF:DateTimeDigitized = "" 2010-08 - 22 T 10: 52:07.58 + 01:00 ""

    EXIF:ExposureBiasValue = "0/1".

    EXIF:MaxApertureValue = "4625/1000.

    EXIF:SubjectDistance = ' 428/100 '.

    EXIF:MeteringMode = '5 '.

    EXIF:focalLength = "80/1 '.

    EXIF:CustomRendered = "0".

    EXIF:ExposureMode = "0".

    EXIF:WhiteBalance = "0".

    EXIF:SceneCaptureType = "0".

    EXIF:FocalPlaneXResolution = "3888000/876.

    EXIF:FocalPlaneYResolution = "2592000/583.

    EXIF:FocalPlaneResolutionUnit = '2 '.

    EXIF:PixelXDimension = "850".

    EXIF:PixelYDimension = "567".

    ...

    There is, of course, a lot more information in the XMP block, but in a file exported using Lightroom 4 has nothing in the XMP block with exif data: or tiff: namespaces so none of this information is available to any script that queries the XMP metadata.  I'm sure that metadata are always there, integrated into the original EXIF data, as I can see using the metadata Panel in the library module, but is not accessible for my scripts because it is not in the XMP block.  I made doubly sure that metadata has been saved and checked also all my settings and even tried to export the files several times with each different setting I can think (even if my current settings worked well in previous versions), but the files never get the exif data: or tiff: data.

    I called Adobe, but the best help they could give me so far was to post here, and I hope someone can help!

    To follow more...

    The latest MWG specification can be found here. A discussion of this question is on page 22; more precisely:

    "However, this document changes this earlier XMP guidance and recommends that the device properties Exif and Tiff only match XMP in the case of the file format does support not natively Exif."

    Dates of spec of JMM in November 2010 and as I mentioned previously, Adobe has adopted this guide some time the year last for LR and, thus I believe, Photoshop.
