synchronize XMP metadata with IPTC metadata - strip XMP metadata blocks
CrossIPTC recodes IPTC data headers to Windows set of characters when created by a Macintosh computer [or vice-versa] to ensure compatibility and properly display author, captions, keywords, categories, credits, and other information containing texts with accents. CrossIPTC can also synchronize XMP metadata with IPTC metadata (or strip XMP metadata); it could be useful when you modify metadata with an IPTC editor which is not able to write XMP block (then IPTC metadata and XMP metadata are not synchronized). IPTC File Info fields added to your pictures identify images you send to your partners. This standard is supported by programs such as Adobe Photoshop, Kalimages, MetadataMiner Catalogue Pro and most professional image database software. A problem occurs when you write IPTC metadata containing extended characters such as accents using one platform and transfer your photos to people using another platform: text fields in your images appear with invalid extended characters. Adobe recommends to avoid use of extended characters in a File Info (see here). But this is not an acceptable solution because accents are absolutely necessary for French, German and Spanish texts (for example). Another problem can occurs when you edit metadata with an "XMP-aware" editor and modify these metadata using an IPTC editor not able to write XMP block. Then you can display "old" metadata when you go back to the "XMP-aware" editor. Coding IPTC from Mac to PC - see the difference:
CrossIPTC can also synchronize XMP metadata with IPTC metadata; it could be useful when you modify metadata with an IPTC editor which is not able to write XMP block (then IPTC metadata and XMP metadata are not synchronized).
