Description

The operator write_image_metadatawrite_image_metadataWriteImageMetadataWriteImageMetadataWriteImageMetadatawrite_image_metadata saves the information in TagValueTagValueTagValueTagValuetagValuetag_value with the tag TagNameTagNameTagNameTagNametagNametag_name into the file FileNameFileNameFileNameFileNamefileNamefile_name. In doing so, TagValueTagValueTagValueTagValuetagValuetag_value and TagNameTagNameTagNameTagNametagNametag_name can be single values or tuples of values. The parameter FormatFormatFormatFormatformatformat specifies, in which format the metadata is to be written.

This operators supports for FormatFormatFormatFormatformatformat the TIFF metadata formats tiff and bigtiff. A file extension .tif is expected.

A list of the supported tag names for TagNameTagNameTagNameTagNametagNametag_name and the according data types for TagValueTagValueTagValueTagValuetagValuetag_value is given in read_image_metadataread_image_metadataReadImageMetadataReadImageMetadataReadImageMetadataread_image_metadata.

Result

If TagValueTagValueTagValueTagValuetagValuetag_value can be correctly written for the specified parameters the operator write_image_metadatawrite_image_metadataWriteImageMetadataWriteImageMetadataWriteImageMetadatawrite_image_metadata returns the value 2 (H_MSG_TRUE). Otherwise an exception is raised. In this case, an extended error information, as e.g., the causative tag, may be set and can be queried with the operator get_extended_error_infoget_extended_error_infoGetExtendedErrorInfoGetExtendedErrorInfoGetExtendedErrorInfoget_extended_error_info.
