Store tags and values in one field versus many fields

Sample with ONE field:

If you specify the import option ExtractEXIFToField:EXIF, the Notes document will contain one multivalue text field with the name EXIF. The content of the EXIF field looks like this;

Make|CASIO
Model|QV-4000
Orientation|8

YResolution|72/1

Note that the EXIF tag- and it's appurtenant value is separated by a vertical bar ( | ). You can use this in your @formulas to separate the tag- and value.

Sample with separate fields:

If you specify the import option ExtractEXIFToField:EXIF,SPLIT, II2LN will create a separate text field for each EXIF tag. Below you see a screen dump from List Fields, showing you the fields in a Notes document:

You see many EXIF fields.
