It will write iptc data to an image. Check the attached. It shows up in Gimp, View Metadata
You can extract the iptc data, command line ImageMagick

Code:

convert iptc.jpg 8BIMTEXT:iptc.txt

Not straight plain text it looks like this (in part)

8BIM#1028="IPTC"
1#90#City="%G"
2#20#Supplemental Category="27-07-2021 08:58:01 BST"
----
2#116#Copyright String="my copyright"
2#120#Caption="Caption: Made in Gimp"

But you can also write that back to another file again using ImageMagick. Which would be a way of bulk editing many images with the same information.

Code:

mogrify -profile 8BIMTEXT:iptc.txt filename.jpg
