I planed to use exiftool as it gives me every tag i want in its default state.
But how do i make the script preserve the tags?



Richard,

Use 'jhead' instead of exiftool. jhead is written in c and 5X faster than
exiftool (perl). You can customize the jhead source easily -- as long as you
like weeding through 50 nested 'if' statements. Both jhead and exiftool will
allow you to add the exif data to the jpegs you create.
