Hello,

I add captions and Hierarchical Subjects to .ARW photos that are correctly saved to .XMP sidecars. When I export them to .JPG, some Hierarchical Subjects are always lost. See this example:

 

exiftool.exe -"XMP:Hierarchical*" -"XMP:Weighted*" test01.xmp
Hierarchical Subject : t|vistes, u|catalunya
Weighted Flat Subject : catalunya, u, vistes, t

exiftool.exe -"XMP-lr:Hierarchical*" -"XMP-lr:Weighted*" test01.xmp
Hierarchical Subject : t|vistes, u|catalunya
Weighted Flat Subject : catalunya, u, vistes, t

 

exiftool.exe -"XMP:Hierarchical*" -"XMP:Weighted*" test01.JPG
Hierarchical Subject : catalunya, t|vistes
Weighted Flat Subject : catalunya, vistes, t

exiftool.exe -"XMP-lr:Hierarchical*" -"XMP-lr:Weighted*" test01.JPG
Hierarchical Subject : catalunya, t|vistes
Weighted Flat Subject : catalunya, vistes, t

 

In the test01.JPG file, the top level u Hierarchical Subject is always lost. I think that it is a LrC bug. I have 14.0.1 release in Windows.

 

Regards.

First troubleshooting steps:

 

1. In the Keyword List, right-click "u" and do Edit Keyword Tag. Is Include On Export checked?

 

2. Right-click "catalunya"  and do Edit Keyword Tag. Is Export Containing Keywords checked?

Hello,

This was the problem, not all 'Include On Export' were checked. Now works fine.

Thank you John.
