Description

Due to the padding and newline characters of XmpParser::encode it can happen that the XMP data grows over the 64KByte limit.
Especially Adobe Lightroom seems to save the XMP data without any formating or padding. In my personal example image(which I cannot share;-) the XMP was 58900 Bytes and after reencoding it with XmpParser::encode it was about ~72000 Bytes.

The simple solution is to patch jpgimage.cpp
Change:
if (XmpParser::encode(xmpPacket_, xmpData_) > 1) {
to:
if (XmpParser::encode(xmpPacket_, xmpData_, XmpParser::useCompactFormat | XmpParser::omitAllFormatting) > 1) {

Kind regards,
Joachim Gelhaus
