Can metadata be expanded to include more ISTP fields? And can Opus read metadata from PSB files?

@PolarGoose—thanks for all your responses and adjustments to the code. I think I have everything working the way I want it now.

In the IPTC Tags reference you linked to it shows:

103 OriginalTransmissionReference string[0,32] (now used as a job identifier)
184 JobID string[0,64]

So it seems that in the IPTC standard they have created a rather confusing naming convention for OriginalTransmissionReference and JobID.

One last question: I wanted to rename a couple other columns in Dopus. I went into the exiftool-columns.js file and made the changes there, and it seems to work fine, but I wanted to double check with you if that's okay or if it's likely to break something in the code.

@tomgoodell,

Glad that you managed to make it work.

I wanted to double check with you if that's okay or if it's likely to break something in the code.

Yes, you can change the second part of the tag definition, because it is just a column name.
For example, you can change:

"IPTC:SpecialInstructions": "Instructions",

to

"IPTC:SpecialInstructions": "Some other name",

Interesting idea. I need to think about. Thank you.
