* Embedding and extracting license/author information in an image file

I often include images in my org documents and would like to properly
cite the license, and/or author. I was thinking that this could be
simplified by:

* embedding the license/author information in some metadata of the jpg
  or png file (it seems that some standard called xmp can be used to
  embed data in png/jpg [fn:1]) preferably using some emacs tool

* getting org to add a footnote with this information when linking to a
  file with this kind of information.

Could it be done ? Do you know of an emacs package providing read/write
access to this metadata ?

You could probably use exiftool with org-babel or dynamic blocks to
extract the required data and generated the syntax you want.

Hope it helps,
Rasmus

I use jhead for adding a copyright statement to my photos (in
JPEG).

Thanks for the pointer, I'll give it a try with
image-dired-get-exif-data, and image-dired-set-exif-data. There doesn't
seem to be an interactive use for the latter, that's unfortunate: you
can't add an exif tag from dired.

Thanks, is there a dedicated field for copyright statements ? Did some
good soul already code some lisp around it ?

This is usually done manually in a citation in the caption I think.

Making the xml would not be too difficult in emacs, but I guess you
would have to call some external program to insert xmp into the images.

This would not work reliably. I could imagine an insert figure link
which would check for the data and do that, or perhaps a
post-insert-link hook function, but neither of these would work if you
simply type in a link. What should happen with images that don't contain
the data?

None I know of. I looked at something similar for pdf, but did not find
anything but external programs.

I'm using it for beamer presentations for teaching, I'd rather have them
all at the end of the pdf.

I guess being able to write and read the metadata from emacs would be
enough for now.

As I mentioned image-dired has image-dired-set-exif-data and
image-dired-get-exif-data: it might be useful.

No idea to both of those.  I use the -cl option for jhead:

-cl string
 Replace comment with specified string from command line file
