NAME

       Image::ExifTool::MWG - Metadata Working Group support

SYNOPSIS

	   # enable MWG tags (strict mode enabled by default)
	   use Image::ExifTool::MWG;

	   # disable MWG strict mode
	   $Image::ExifTool::MWG::strict = 0;

DESCRIPTION

       The MWG module contains tag definitions which are designed to simplify implementation of the Metadata Working Group guidelines.	These
       special MWG composite tags are enabled simply by loading this module:

	   use Image::ExifTool::MWG;

       When the MWG module is loaded, "strict MWG conformance" is enabled by default.  In this mode, ExifTool will generate a Warning tag instead
       of extracting EXIF, IPTC and XMP from non-standard locations.  The strict mode may be disabled by setting the MWG "strict" flag to zero
       (either before or after loading the MWG module):

	   $Image::ExifTool::MWG::strict = 0;
