They come to me as TIFF and I am converting to JP2 in order to upload to the Internet Archive. The trouble is that I can't find a reliable piece of code or a process to add XMP metadata to the JP2.

Although a problem with this approach is that now an XMP that describes a tiff is embedded in a jp2. Perhaps you could parse the source XMP for selects and then use exiftool to write relevant tags to the output file. > Best Regards > > Dave Rice > avpreserve.com
