# Image::ExifTool::WritePhotoshop(3pm)

Write Photoshop IRB meta information

## NAME

Image::ExifTool::WritePhotoshop.pl - Write Photoshop IRB meta information

## SYNOPSIS

This file is autoloaded by Image::ExifTool::Photoshop.

## DESCRIPTION

This file contains routines to write Photoshop metadata.

## NOTES

Photoshop IRB blocks may have an associated resource name.  By default, the existing name is preserved when rewriting a resource, and an empty name is used when creating a new resource.  However, a different resource name may be specified by defining a `"SetResourceName"` entry in the tag information hash.  With this defined, a new resource name may be appended to the value in the form "VALUE/#NAME#/" (the slashes and hashes are literal).  If `"SetResourceName"` is anything other than '1', the value is used as a default resource name, and applied if no appended name is provided.
