am trying to figue out how to set the ExifDictionary.UserComment field.

I tried
Code:
JpegReader jpegReader = (JpegReader) formatReader;
ExifDictionary exifData = jpegReader.Exif;
exifData[  ExifDictionary.UserComment  ] = "blah blah";


but this fails.

any ideas?

thanks!

Hello,

This tag contains byte buffer which can include different types of information: ASCII, JIS, Unicode and undefibed. This information can be obtained from EXIF specification. Here is sample code which writes ASCII string in this tag:
Code:
string comment = "blah blah";
System.Text.ASCIIEncoding encoder = new System.Text.ASCIIEncoding();
	
// Byte buffer. This buffer contains string with 8 byte prefix, which includes information type.
byte[] array = new byte[comment.Length + 8];
array[7] = 2; // ASCII flag
encoder.GetBytes(comment).CopyTo(array, 8);
	
Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.JpegReader jpegReader = new Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.JpegReader(@"d:/temp/xmp/xmp1.jpg");
Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.JpegWriter writer = new Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.JpegWriter(@"d:/temp/UserComment.jpg");
	
// Write destination Jpeg.
Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.ExifDictionary exifData = jpegReader.Exif;
exifData[Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.ExifDictionary.UserComment] = array;
writer.Exif = exifData;
writer.AddFrame(jpegReader.LoadFrame(0));
	
writer.Close();
jpegReader .Close();
