--- Comment #9 from herb <her...@web.de> --- Hello, thanks for your comments. For me this leads to the question: Should Digikam follow (1) only the EXIF-standard: In this case you are right, many tags (e.g. also artist) allow only ASCII characters. (2) also the MWG requirements: As said many other systems do this. For me each "up to date" system should do this. In this case it is a must to support UTF-8 for EXIF-tags. And this UTF-8 support is independent on whether Digikam synchronizes tags as requested by MWG automatically. IMatch e.g. has a global option which defines the rules (1) or (2). (3) In case of your decision will be to follow strict the old fashioned EXIF standard and you do not allow to write UTF-8 strings for EXIF tags, then please make it possible that UTF-8 strings will be displayed properly. Only then for images tagged by other systems (that have written UTF-8 to EXIF-tags) all tags will be displayed properly. Still hoping that Digikam will also write UTF-8 for EXIF-tags.
