What is a customized non standards IIM information?
IPTC/IIM standard describes 33 metadata types(Title, Author, Keywords, etc.). Each type is defined by an english and a number named DataSet between 1 and 254: Mot-clé = Keyword = 25, Titre = Headline = 105, etc. [voir notre page Métadonnées: une initiation (section IPTC) ]. It is therefore possible to define IIM information using DataSet numbers that are between 1 and 254 but different from those used by the standard: this is the customized non standard information. You should use this information with care because you might loose it if the software you use to process your image does not include support for that. Kalimages allows you to manage 16 different IIM customized fields per image and to define the DataSet number you want to allocate for each field. You can give meaningful names to your IIM customized fields in relation to the usage that you want: Menu Configuration/IPTC Edit Options, click on Edit customized field names button.
