Information About

Extensible Metadata Platform




XMP is used in PDF and other graphics applications. It recognizes that a digital photo may go through multiple processing steps, from being photographed or Scanned , through photo editing steps (such as Cropping or color adjustment), to assembly into a final image. Thus XMP allows each software program or device along the way to add its own information to the digital photo, which is then retained in the final digital file.

In a typical edited JPEG file, XMP information is typically included alongside Exif and IPTC data.
