I use Adobe Photoshop Elements 18 to change all the photos in a folder from TIFF format to JPG using the option “Process Multiple Files” o saving individual files.
The photos in TIFF format have the Title field of the metadata with information like this:
“1980-04-dd DR Església de Sant Andrèu - Salardú - Naut Aran - Vall d'Aran - Lleida.”
Observing the output in JPG format I see that the information has been transformed into this:
“1980-04-dd DR Església de Sant Andrèu - Salardú - Naut Aran - Vall d'Aran - Lleida.”
Apparently, there is an unwanted change in the value of certain metadata fields when they are not normal characters.
In some pictures the error does not occur. I have observed two similar photos using ExifTool and I think the problem is that one of the occurrences of the "Coded Character Set: UTF8" is lost.
Correct photo:
