Hi guys,

I encountered some website which may not recognize semi colon and not able to read all the keywords, is there a website or method that i can replace every semi colon into coma or space?

I do it manually but it seems i need to do it once in a while at different situations, anyone got a quick way to do it?

thanks.

Microsoft word, use function replace on whole text...

Try XnView, it lets you copy IPTC data to XMP and changes all semi colons to commas during this process

You can put them into the Microstock Keyword Compare tool..

just put all the words into list one and it'll spit them out with commas instead of semi colons on the bottom.  It'll also remove any duplicate keywords if there are any.

@Leaf. Thanks, that's really useful 

thanks for all the solutions, guess it will be useful to others too.

I can't say for sure but I think Exiftool would do it and also do it in a batch to replace all at once in a directory full of image files.  You can do lot of data manipulation in image files with it but it might be a little complicated to figure out the exact command.

Take a look at it.  http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/

Out of curiosity, which web sites couldn't read Photoshop-written keywords with semi-colons? I haven't ever had a site (that read IPTC data) have a problem with this.
