Copy of metadatas into the files

VELTIN Joffrey
Hi everyone,
Several days I am looking for a way to copy the information stored in the database directly into the files (such as EXIF orientation tags, IPTC tags, etc). Is there a simple way to do so?
The reason is I would like to be able to get my pix tagged whatever viewer is used.
Any help is appreciated.
Kind regards,

Joffrey

Hello Joffrey
Look at the documentation:
http://digikam3rdparty.free.fr/0.9%20releases/digikam_0.9.3.pdf
Page 39:

And pages 208 the entry "Synchronize images with database" from the
album menu.
Have a good day
