I'm wanting to extract comments from photos. If I write the comments with ImageMagick, I can read them with ImageMagick, but they can't be seen in the tool tip resulting from a mouseover (in Windows) or in the info pane when selecting the file (also in Windows). However, if I create comment by (in Windows) right-clicking on the photo and adding it, I can't read it with ImageMagick (or Image::Info, for that matter), but it can be seen on mouseover and selection.

The answer could be that comments created through Windows are exif data... Does anyone have a recommendation for a module to read *and* write exif data?

Thanks.
