You are right, Patrick, the manual has grown into a really fine tool.
That's where I started in the first place.
But I'm sorry, but to include iptc tags doesn't seem to have any effect
on the xmp tags. I do get xmp.dc.title and xmp.dc.description, but gimp
shows an empty string whenever there is a special character within. I'm
not sure if it is a gimp problem, but I cannot find the trick to tell it
to use utf-8 with metadata. I hope that dt exports them as utf-8.
By the way, I cannot set formulas to manually inserted iptc metadata any
more. They are accepted to be saved, but they are not executed and don't
show, when I reopen the preferences, even "=" is lost.
I use dt 4.0.1 on macos Monterey 12.6. My gimp is 2.10.22.
To improve my workflow I need gimp with these metadata. To abstain from
special characters would be a somewhat ugly solution.
Many thanks

I want to export my images from dt as jpeg containing xmp metadata,
especially Title and Description, e.g. 'Arcen' as Matadata.Title. If I open
these files with gimp I find the contents of Xmp.dc.title as
'lang="x-default" Arcen'. I am German, and I want to use umlauts, too. So my
Metadata.Title should be 'Arcen. Schlossgärten'. But in this case the
exported Xmp.dc.title remains empty.
How can I set the correct lang for the export from dt?
in the fine manual:
