Hi @mb_fdfa , I've taken a look into FME's capabilities regarding IPTC and at the moment it doesn't look like the metadata tags can be exposed. I would suggest submitting an idea on the community to gather interest from the user community as well.
Hi @mb_fdfa ,
an extract from our Wiki (translated with google, sorry).
automated creation of image metadata
FME fills EXIF
FME supports the processing of EXIF data for the JPG format, the FME documentation contains a list of the supported JPEG Feature Type Format Attributes in FME. The FME process creates the image file (jpg) and transfers the picture desription information, e.g. from the POI-Database to the EXIF data of the image.
EXIFTool fills IPTC
Filling the IPTC data with FME does not (yet) seem possible, the IPTC tags are filled with Phil Harvey's ExifTool. ExifTool is free software for reading, writing and editing metadata for image, audio and video files. The ExifTool is called from the command line, it can be controlled via the command line and/or via a parameter file.
The ExifTool then transfers (copys) the metadata from the EXIF area to the IPTC area and - if necessary - also cleans up the EXIF data.
